This smells like a binutils bug.  The documentation is quite clear;

   * The symbol type.  At least the following types are used; others
     are, as well, depending on the object file format.  If lowercase,
     the symbol is local; if uppercase, the symbol is global (external).

     [...]

    `D'
          The symbol is in the initialized data section.

     [...]

    `T'
          The symbol is in the text (code) section.

Or is the ppc64 documentation different?
