Summary:  Reassigned item: extend linker scripts to permit -fdata-sections (gcc 
PR14064) and  -ffunction-sections

Original Submission:  gcc-3.4.3 now fully supports -fdata-sections (PR14064) and
-ffunction-sections for AVR targets.  It needs, however, modified linker 
scripts. see the attached patch for avr2.x
