--- Comment #7 from Alan Modra <amodra at gmail dot com> ---
How exactly is the proposed SHF_LINK_ORDER trick supposed to work?  A reference
to start_foo/stop_foo symbols from a kept section currently marks all input
sections named foo as kept.  Are you suggesting that any section named foo that
is SHF_LINK_ORDER with a self-link should not be marked?  But those foo that do
not have a self-link should be marked?

Has there been any comment about this idea from the gABI group?
