such as "load the immediate address of a bootloader magic constant".

you'll find that in the Makefile there is a #define of the offset
address, that *absolutely must* be encoded correctly to the
address that you expect the binary to be uploaded to.  this #define
goes into the linker script via some makefile target voodoo involving
gcc -E (i think - something like that) which can do macro-substitution.
