A better solution has appeared :-).
bfin-uclinux-nm was being called with a -B, changing the nm call to:

bfin-uclinux-nm --demangle=gnu

fixes the problem, the default -B is the same as --demangle=bsd.
on way to set this is by calling:

export NM="bfin-uclinux-nm --demangle=gnu"

before compiling, overriding the toolchain default -B.

thanks for all the help.

Best regards,
Tiago Katcipis
