hi!

I am porting FreeBSD on P1010RDB platform. I modified existing MPC85XX
config (i.e. removed SMP), created p1010rdb.dts from p1020rdb.dts etc,
and ran the kernel via u-boot:
tftp 0x1000000 fbsd.elf
go 0x10000e0

Nothing happened, so I used CodeWarrior IDE with CW USB Tap, and it
turned out, that OF_install() call in sys/powerpc/booke/machedp.c
returns false. I inspected this function and moreover, I inspected the
structure, which is pointer from set_ofw_set linker set:

$ powerpc-rtems-objdump -s kernel | grep set_ofw_set
Contents of section set_ofw_set:
 c03694f0 c037ab54                             .7.T

(gdb) p (ofw_def_t)*0xc037ab54
$1 = {name = 0xc03339a4 "ofw_fdt", methods = 0xc0319350, size = 0,
baseclasses = 0x0, refs = 0, ops = 0x0}

As we can se, name field is correct. But this function seems to fail
in strcmp().
I have found the issue [1] on bugtracker, so Im quite sure, that the
problem is ith linker sets on powerpc (but this issue is quite old now
;) ), but  the fix is not working for me - it crashes while compiling:

Do you have any idea, how to fix this?
