It turns out that the primary bootxx_bfs binary doesn't load the
secondary boot built by recent toolchain.

In sys/arch/ews4800mips/stand/common/bootxx.c, load_elf() just
loads the first two problem header sections:
---
int
load_elf(uint8_t *buf, uint32_t *entry)
{
	Elf32_Ehdr *e = (void *)buf;
	Elf32_Phdr *p;
[..]
	BASSERT(e->e_phentsize == sizeof(Elf32_Phdr));
	p = (void *)(buf + e->e_phoff);
#ifdef _STANDALONE
	memcpy((void *)p->p_vaddr, buf + p->p_offset, p->p_filesz);
	p++;
	memcpy((void *)p->p_vaddr, buf + p->p_offset, p->p_filesz);
#else
---

but recent gcc/binutils seem to create three sections.

5.0 /usr/mdec/boot (by readelf -a):

It works to change bootxx.c to check all sections in the problem header
as MI libsa loadfile_elf32.c does:

I'll commit fix and send a pullup request to netbsd-9.
