[klibc] [PATCH] x86_64: fix shared library breakage with new binutils versions

In recent versions of binutils the maximum page size for x86_64 was
increased from 1 MB to 2 MB:
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/binutils/2006-05/msg00279.html
This change breaks building of the klibc shared library - klibc.so
data is pushed over the 4 MB mark, where it may overlap the main
executable (which is linked starting at 4 MB).
Adding the "-z max-page-size=0x100000" option fixes the problem with
new binutils, and does not break linking with old binutils (ld
silently ignores unknown "-z KEYWORD" options).
