The last known good is binutils-2.35.2
On Gentoo, if I switch to it, this exact test case works fine, the program
prints 'hello'.

I just confirmed reproduced it again on my dev system.
binutils-2.35.2     works
binutils-2.37_p1-r1 segfault

I had also previously tested 
  binutils-2.36.1     segfault


On Gentoo, one can switch between them via eselect:

AS ROOT
# eselect binutils list
 [1] x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-2.35.2
 [2] x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-2.37_p1 *

# eselect binutils set 1
 * Switching to x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-2.35.2 ...                                 
                                                                               
                                [ ok ]
 * Please remember to run:
 *   # . /etc/profile

NOW AS USER:
$ . /etc/profile
$ sh ppas.sh 
Linking myprog
/usr/bin/ld: warning: link.res contains output sections; did you forget -T?
$ ./myprog 
hello
