The first example coming to my mind: if you look into atlas.info,
you see (currently commented out) lines where linking was done
with ld, precisely in part to avoid linking in libgcc_s
(which in fact didn't provide any needed symbols in that case).
And with -dead_strip_dylibs, this might become more frequent.

But sure it will remain rather exceptional cases.
