`--gc-sections` isn't enabled distribution-wide. The previous bugs were from
packages which enabled it manually and from the KDE / Qt packages which seem to
all have it enabled as well. For the packages where it is enabled, it is of
course tested on all of Debian's targets.

Your second patch does solve the issue in supermin for me.

Thanks!
