With an assembly file with just

        .align 16
        .long 42

a linker script with

SECTIONS
{
  .text : {*(.text) } = 0xa
}

and linking with

ld.gold -T  test.script test.o test.o  -shared -o test.gold

I get a file with a .text section that looks like

 0x000000d0 2a000000 0000000a 0000000a 0000000a *...............
 0x000000e0 2a000000

Cheers,
