This happens with ld.exe from both v2 and v1.12, so I cannot see how 
could it work in v1 (unless you used v1.11).  That seems to belong to the 
bug in Binutils 2.5.2 that generally makes ld fail for large data sizes 
(either in object files or in libraries).  I don't know about any 
workaround except using ld.exe from v1.11, sorry.
