What advantage will --all-init bring you over --whole-archive?

How would you define --all-init in terms of the linker?  You are defining it in
terms of C++.  But different C++ implementations handle static constructors
completely differently.  You need to define what --all-init should do in linker
terms.

Quite aside from that, this is not a bug.  I recommend that you define what the
linker should do, write a patch, and send it to the mailing list to see what
people think.  Please don't keep reopening this bug.  That is inappropriate
behaviour.
