[Bug binutils/19440] COFF handling bug. In particular, renders bigobj support broken.

https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19440 --- Comment #2 from awson --- Hmm, I've looked into BFD code and have seen several 'in->n_scnum = H_GET_16 (abfd, ext->e_scnum);' and 'H_PUT_16 (abfd, in->n_scnum, ext->e_scnum);' constructs here and there (for example in coffswap.h), where

https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19531 --- Comment #3 from awson --- Did you try to inspect the executable linked with 2.16 to understand how many sections it contains? Perhaps, existing linker script doesn't merge some kind(s) of sections correctly? Also, current ld script is bug

https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19254 --- Comment #4 from awson --- Good catch of ".data$*" thing, indeed `gcc` on Windows generates `$` instead of `.`, and this, perhaps, would be correct to make GHC do the same thing, but we already have separate handling of `.text.*` sections o

https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19254 --- Comment #5 from awson --- I looked further into it. Sections with '$' separator also not only should be merged into the prefix section, but also should be sorted according to their suffix names. I'm not sure if we need this for GHC-generat
