--- Comment #5 from Jan Beulich <jbeulich at suse dot com> ---
I tend to disagree as far as reverting on the branch goes. We won't know for
the next release either, as many people tend to not test development state
software. Furthermore, at the example of the report here, the problem really is
with the consumer imo (choking on something that isn't invalid as per the
spec), and hence the now submitted series [1] is rather a workaround for such
consumers, not really a fix for anything.

In the end it is going to be Nick's call, I suppose.

To me at least it is in fact questionable whether it is correct for ld (also
for "normal" linking, i.e. pre-existing behavior independent of the patches
referenced below) to fold .note* sections that differ in just NOTE vs PROGBITS.
In fact this issue may be yet wider, as section type doesn't really play much
of a role in linker scripts anyway.
