The question I asked was SPECIFIC to the ARM IMPLEMENTATION of gcc, gas, and
ld for the GBA.

Now to clarify.....

Apparently there are issues declaring local instances of structures.
Example:

typedef struct
{
int stuff,it;
}CRAP;

void bar()
{
CRAP mycrap; /* mycrap is a bad address...why? */

mycrap.stuff = 3; /*can't do this because mycrap is BAD*/

/*.....other code*/
};

I would consider this a legitimate issue :).
