Not sure what I should add here?  Honza suggested to mangle the
promoted symbol names.  I don't
really like the idea to compile multiple TUs into one object.  Also

+LTO_LINKER_FLAGS = -flto=auto --param=lto-partitions=16
-flinker-output=nolto-rel -r

why hard-code to 16 partitions?  You're side-stepping the driver
diagnostic by doing
compile & link separately, but in the end we're going to want sth like Giulianos
-fparallel-compile that works transparently from within the driver, so
the "manual"
operation should try to follow that or alternatively a driver-only
wrapper around the
"manual" processing could be added whose implementation can be optimized later.

Why do you use -flto=auto?  There should be a jobserver active.
