There is no easy and simple fix for that problem.  It require to use a 
modified version gas-1.92.3 that can generate COFF and understand .init
sections and a small patch for gcc-2.2.2 that I posted a new week ago.

I can mail the diff to gcc-2.2.2 to who ever wants it but as the gas-1.92.3
compress tar file is rather big (1.5MB) I can only ftp it to somewhere
so that people can grab it.
