pooka 48b3a6f7a3 binutils 2.19 has changed the old behaviour of defining __start_SECTNAME
for orphaned sections to using PROVIDE.  What this means is that
unless a rump component internally references that symbol, it will
not be included in the component shared library, and hence cannot
be referenced when the component is loaded.  Add a workaround which
works both with 2.16 and 2.19: force a reference to the __start
symbol internally and hence retain it in the resulting library.
