After using this shell script:

rm -f log.txt
for i in `nm -g hello.exe | awk '/ T / {print $3}'` ; do
   sed s%__rtems_start%$i% < ../../../../../mcp750/lib/ppcboot.lds > ppcboot.lds.$i
   if powerpc-rtems4.11-ld -o hello.ralf ../../../../../mcp750/lib/bootloader.o 
--just-symbols=hello.exe -b binary rtems.gz -T ppcboot.lds.$i -Map hello.map ; then
     echo good $i >> log.txt
   else
     echo bad $i >> log.txt
   fi
done

it seems to be completely random which symbols are undefined and which are defined.
