What is the version of 'latest' ?

Sorry about that.  As you can see, I'm using binutils (ld & as ) from
arm
toolchain we use to build things for our target.

arm_a_b_c_ld -v gives 2.17.50.20070611

arm_a_b_c_as -v gives 2.17.50.20070611

Do you belive that older binaries of (linker & assembler) can cause
performance drop ? Unfortunately I'm not in a position to update the arm
compiler for my company :)

This is definitely not the latest binutils you've stated before. As
you might see - these are at least 3 years old and are known to be
heavily buggy on ARM.

No. They are just buggy (at least assembler).

Well, sorry, then you're not lucky then. You should expect invalid
code / spurious error messages produced in many places (and you
already saw this!)
