--- Comment #19 from Rui Ueyama <rui314 at gmail dot com> ---
This change completely breaks compatibility with the current and all previous
versions of the mold linker. Specifically, mold cannot link against shared
libraries if they are linked with GNU ld after
f685e3953f9a38a41bbd0a597f9882870cee13d5.

This appears to be an aesthetic change with no real user benefit, yet it
already causes a major compatibility issue. It is probably not limited to mold,
as GNU ld has been emitting the symbol table version the way it currently does
probably since the very beginning. I don’t think it is worth taking the risk.
It seems we are breaking user environments with no real reward.
