Hello,

I'm using Yagarto, with version info "arm-elf-gcc (GCC) 4.3.2", with 
AT91SAM7X128 chip.

I've been working with USB device port, and although it works now, the 
linker is giving me trouble. I am running the entire application from 
flash, without remapping (i.e. base address 0x0000'0000) and SRAM starts 
from 0x0020'0000. Pretty normal bootloader config.

USB code itself is taken from the Atmel's example cdc (serial converter) 
project and seems to be fine when run from SRAM.

After linking to Flash, I noticed that linker had allocated few bytes to 
SRAM region (copy-paste from resulting intel hex file):

...
:020000040020DA
:08000000343A0000383A000018
...

Guessing that this was some USB array, I found the addresses mentioned 
from map file:

...
0x00003a34                languageIdStringDescriptor
...
0x00003a38                productStringDescriptor
...

These are referred from a single array (stringDescriptors), and this 
array in turn is referred from a struct (all relevant stuff below).

So, it seemed that I had missed an "const" somewhere. But no, it's 
there, and to me it seems that all consts needed are there. Is there 
something I have missed, or could this be a bug in compiler/linker? 
(trouble casting   *array[] to **array or something...)
