I cannot reproduce the issue here with my distro GCC+binutils (Debian 8.3.0)

The presence of .data.rel.ro and .got.plt sections suggests that the
toolchain is using -fpie and/or -z relro to build shared objects
rather than a fully linked bare metal binary.

Which toolchain are you using? Does adding -fno-pie to the compiler
command line and/or adding -z norelro to the linker command line make
any difference?
