I've tested many packages with gold linker and noticed that it creates a unknown symbol for every library I tested. I don't know for what it is but either dpkg-gensymbols has to stop to add it to the symbols file or binutils- gold has to stop to export it as symbol that looks like it was exported by the user.
Maybe this can be changed or documented somewhere so Debian knows what to do
with that symbol.
Example output from zlib:
dpkg-gensymbols: warning: debian/lib32z1/DEBIAN/symbols doesn't match
completely debian/lib32z1.symbols
--- debian/lib32z1.symbols (lib32z1 amd64)
