I just stumbled over a very weird problem in a new sample for my sokol 
headers which includes a non-trivial 3rd party C library - the spine-c 
runtime 
(https://github.com/EsotericSoftware/spine-runtimes/tree/4.1/spine-c/spine-c)

When building in release mode (but not in debug mode) the linker complains 
about an unresolved 'calloc' call. Adding detailed output 
via LLD_REPORT_UNDEFINED=1 I get tons of:

wasm-ld: error: 
/Users/floh/projects/fips-sdks/emsdk/upstream/emscripten/cache/sysroot/lib/wasm32-emscripten/lto/libemmalloc.a(emmalloc.o):
 
undefined symbol: calloc

... how does that even make sense when emmalloc is supposed to provide an 
implementation of calloc... anyway...

The error goes away when compiling in debug mode (some differences that 
come to mind to the release mode is that debug mode doesn't use -flto, and 
also doesn't run the closure compiler).

The problem also goes away when not building with emmalloc.

Now the weird thing is that the entire code this sample is built from 
doesn't appear to call calloc anywhere... and that other samples which 
actually use calloc build just fines.

Has anybody seen a similar problem yet, before I jump myself into the 
rabbit hole? :)

The problematic command line is:
