Small correction to linker script

Hi,

I think line 40 in the files AT917S64-ROM/RAM.ld should be
  .text : { *Cstartup.o (.text) }>FLASH =0
instead of
  .text : { *cstartup.o (.text) }>FLASH =0
Otherwise the object file CStartup.o has to appear first when invoking
the linker.

Since the Windows file system is not case sensitive I am struggling to
see the difference - however if you were to use these scripts on Linux
you would indeed have a problem.

Thanks for the report. As Clifford already mentioned the problem should
only exist with an OS which handles filenames case-sensitive. But since
the examples from my collection should be usable on all OSs which can
host the GNU arm-elf toolchain I have modified the linker-scripts. The
updated versions are available on
