I will give it a try and let you know.  If it does work, making it work
for Python is a somewhat harder problem, as the linker options are
generated by a script that generates another script, etc...
However, I'll see if I can untangle it.

I suppose the thing to do is to find where it specifies --export-dynamic
to the linker and add -znocombreloc at that point?
