The objcopy command that elicits the error is 80819 characters long, well in excess of the maximum. Normally, the objcopy command isn't so massive. However, as this particular target is a split image, newt needs to specify which symbols go in which image (loader or app). Newt does this by explicitly specifying each symbol to keep using the `-K ` syntax. This is a tricky problem. I'm afraid I don't know of a workaround, other than building in a non-Windows environment. I have filed this issue in github: https://github.com/apache/mynewt-newt/issues/149. Thanks for the report.

Hi Abderrezak, Could you try building again with the `-ldebug` switch? Please include the output in a follow up.
