  if (h->root.type != bfd_link_hash_undefined
       && h->root.type != bfd_link_hash_undefweak)
-    return NULL;
+    {
+      /* PR 20022  */
+      if (sec_name && info->gc_sections && h->root.u.undef.section == NULL)
+       info->callbacks->einfo (_("%X%P: error: undefined orphan section symbol
%s suggests that garbage collection failed\n"),
+                               h->root.root.string);
+      return NULL;
    }

Is it safe to check h->root.u.undef.section for defined symbol?
