Commit 44c6e65 "rename _end to __bss_end__ broke building of a large
number of systems (at least all PowerPC?):

libstubs.o: In function `app_startup':
examples/standalone/stubs.c:197: undefined reference to `__bss_end__'

As a workaround (instead of introducing linker scripts) we can
add a --defsym=__bss_end__=_end

What I really do not understand is why we don't see the same type of
undefined reference errors on ARM?  ALso, on ARM we see __bss_end__
and _bss_end__, and __bss_start und __bss_start__ - where are the
other names coming from? [On PPC we see only __bss_start and
__bss_end__].
