The smartlink flag in the PPU only gives the compiler info which files can
be used for linking. without this change that is a .o or a .a file. Since
the .a file is not needed anymore there is only the .o left.
Using -XX to remove the ld option (--gc-sections) will have different
effects on the platforms.
A possible solution is to revert to the old single section .o file method
when the option -XS is passed.
