As you may have seen from Segher's email from about 40 minutes ago, I can confirm that I am getting the same error at the same point in the build. I am going to reply to his message in a few minutes with more details he requested. Like you, I also have a 2.15-era ld version. I can tell you that if you revert the patch that Segher sent on July 22 for file arch/powerpc/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S, the link should succeed (mine does).
