--- Comment #21 from Colin Watson <cjwatson at debian dot org> ---
This appears to have caused a number of packages using Gnulib to fail their
test suites:

  https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2013-10/msg00017.html

I suspect this actually needs to be fixed in Gnulib rather than in ld, but I've
seen it in enough places that I thought it might be worth a reference here in
case people from other distributions are trying to work out what's going on.
