Hmm, I don't like to disagree with an gcc-expert like you,but
I did pasted an objdump in my last mail, which shows that gcc did
generated .text.1, .text.2 and so on:

Sections:
Idx Name          Size      VMA       LMA       File off  Algn
   0 .text         00000000  00000000  00000000  00000034  2**0
                   CONTENTS, ALLOC, LOAD, READONLY, CODE
...
   4 .text.1       00000000  00000000  00000000  000000b0  2**0
                   CONTENTS, ALLOC, LOAD, READONLY, CODE
