It's because of libphobos not being compiled with inlining due
to the changes to template linkage emission.
Could you please tell me more about these changes? Are they
somewhere in the GDC frontend, GCC backend or in the libphobos
code itself? Were they intentional or a side effect of something
else?
Before finding this forum thread, I happened to submit a similar
issue in the gcc bugzilla some days ago:
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=102765
What is the current status of LTO nowadays? Is it sufficiently
reliable and problem-free in GDC11 to be universally recommended
for any optimized release builds?
