which means resorting to objcopy (and thus BFD) for the task of section
extraction and renaming.

I am not filing another bug right now - gold not accepting a linker script
as output from a linker plugin (GNU ld happily does).  This is needed to
provide minimal-I/O early debug for LTO, picking the early-debug sections
from the compile-time objects and linking them to the executable in the
final link (need to resort to an incremental link for GNU ld as well due to
a bug for now).
