Thanks for that tip, but I didn't change the sections in the linker script. I didn't add any flags either. I attach the single test case cleaned up a bit. I ran this on the buildroot toolchain (standard config with uclibc and with 2.24.0 binutils) with 4.8.2 and the result is 42. I rebuilt the toolchain only changing the compiler version to 4.9.2 and the result is 0.
This corroborates what I was seeing (or not as in the case of the prompt not appearing in busybox) with my builds also.
