I found the error

link.res should be so (its generic from compiler/systems/tlinux.pas):

  /* Adjust the address for the data segment.  We want to adjust up to
     the same address within the page on the next page up.  */
  . = ALIGN(0x8000) - ((0x8000 - .) & (0x8000 - 1)); . =
DATA_SEGMENT_ALIGN (0x8000, 0x1000);
  /* Exception handling  */

I've it compare with my and codesourcery binutils
