cdtest and .gcc_exc section



DISCLAIMER: I think I have Outlook configured to do plain text but it *is*
Microsoft so please forgive me if this is still HTML-y.

Target is m68k, BSP is gen68360, Host is Solaris 2.6

I have just tailored the gen68360 BSP to support my hardware and am
executing the sample apps to make sure all is well.  All the apps (hello,
ticker, base_sp, paranoia) work well but there are issues with cdtest.
Linking cdtest yields a "warning: no memory region specified for section
'.gcc_exc'.  

I modified linkcmds and created a section for *(".gcc_exc").  Running the
program outputs the letter 'H' to the console, then it stops.  
I tried putting .gcc_exc in Ram and in Rom, but the results are always the
same.  

I have a feeling I'm overlooking something but I can't figure out what it
is.  Any suggestions?
