Does it work for all situations? I remember a bug for the rust compiler
that broke libraries when --gc-sections was used, because it removed the
metadata that rust needed to load the library. One of the fpc devs can
probably say whether fpc may have a similar problem.
You risk losing e.g. resources.
This is typically what needs to be investigated.
