Thanks. I am going to replace the last paragraph of the commit log with

    Note that in this particular case, we are interested in PIE linking
    only (i.e., producing a .rela section containing dynamic relocations
    that the startup code can process directly), and not in position
    independent code generation, and by passing the -pie option to the
    linker directly using -Wl,-pie (and dropping -shared), we can coerce
    the GOLD linker into doing only the former rather than both when it
    performs its LTO code generation.

and push (unless you have any objections)
