Hi All, To further to add on to info and to bring one point to notice, I had build my kernel with SDE toolset (gcc version 3.4.4 mipssde-6.02.03-20050629) and binutils 2.15.94 (for e.g., GNU objcopy 2.15.94 mipssde-6.02.03-20050629) It is mentioned on SDE site, that the SDE package will only install compiler but I found that it installed binutils package also. I am going to try with binutils 2.16 and lets see if it helps.
