That could be it, but I don't see how that table of symbol addresses
    .long _text - 0xbeef
is using any GOT slots at all.  (Plus I don't know how a R_SPARC_32
could ever be truncated - maybe there is a 64- vs 32-bit toolchain
confusion happening somewhere?)

I could be misunderstanding things, but maybe what's wrong is that the
new markers section is located in a sensitive spot, and its size is
causing something else to no longer be reachable by shorter offsets.
What are the neighbouring regions in the linker script?
