--- Comment #69 from Nightishaman <nighti at nighti dot dev> ---
To be fair, we shouldn't still rely on a small hack to fix a small bug. We have
specifications specifically to have predictability and this seems nowhere
documented in the ELF specification. Also, I think a project such as binutils,
which is used by many other operating system, shouldn't be hindered by
GNU/Linux because it is more popular. If you were to apply such a hack inside
the Linux kernel, Torvalds would reject the commit.

So please, remove this, and make ld.bfd more predictable like the other
linkers.
