PT>> 3) The new binutils has something to do with the crash

I've found the following:

 Old 'ld'(200110) seems to place the following symbols and the first
 '.data_cygwin_nocopy' on a the same  place - '_data_end__' and
 'wsock_started'.

 New 'ld' places them in the following order:
   1. '_data_end__'
   2. first '.data_cygwin_nocopy' section and 'wsock_started' starting
      4 bytes after '_data_end__'.

Of course it may have nothing to do with the crash - if so just tell me and I'll shut up :)
