Can you please post the output of "avr-objdump -h your_object_file" ?
It would be useful to provide this for the case where
--section-start=.putsec=0x4000, and again with no .putsec. We can then
see if there really is some interference.

The limited information available so far shows that the LMA of .data is
indeed 0x04de. Where do you see '"0x2034"(word address)'? 
(In any case, when fiddling with the linker, it is better to work
exclusively in byte adresses. It avoids confusion. ;-)
