It seems __bss_end__ is not a true convention for all toolchains,
at least not for PPC. Using  _end for standalone programs might be
the simplest way to fix this problem.

One of the other choices may be writing a linker script to provide
__bss_end__ for PPC.

Hi all,

Not sure if this is the best solution, but I think this
could fix Heiko's problem.
