> Why is this blocked by #3658? Isn't the ability to load a static C++
object file independent to the ability to use the system linker?
We could fix it in our own linker, but I think it would be a waste of
effort when we're removing our linker and using the system linker instead.
In HEAD we're already using the system linker on Elf platforms by default
(except for FreeBSD, due to a bug in their system linker, but even there
we will switch to the system linker once 7.8 is branched).
