--- Comment #5 from Alan Modra <amodra at gmail dot com> ---
There is a .note.gnu.property section in your gcc-9 compiled object file.  This
section is an allocated section (and thus will appear in the binary output),
and is placed by the generic linker before your .text section at a relatively
low address.  Combined with the very high address of your .text section would
mean a binary format output file of around 18 exa bytes.  I'm guessing that you
don't have such a large storage system.

Use -Ttext-segment=0xff... rather than -Ttext=0xff... when linking if you want
the .note.gnu.property section in your output, compile with an option that
turns it off, or remove the section before linking.
