--- Comment #2 from H.J. Lu <hjl.tools at gmail dot com> ---
(In reply to Mike Hommey from comment #1)
> It seems to be due to most __sancov_cntrs sections having the SHT_GROUP flag.

> (bfs_abs_section_ptr->owner != link_info.output_bfd), which then marks the

>From gABI:

SHT_GROUP
This section defines a section group. A section group is a set of sections that
are related and that must be treated specially by the linker (see below for
further details). Sections of type SHT_GROUP may appear only in relocatable
objects (objects with the ELF header e_type member set to ET_REL). The section
header table entry for a group section must appear in the section header table
before the entries for any of the sections that are members of the group.

How were __sancov_cntrs sections generated?
