Your analysis is correct, thank you.

While "-nostdlib" actually is a ld option (at least in my ld according to
--help and man page), I rechecked and noticed I passed another gcc parameter
"-no-enum-size-warning" to ld which seems to behave like "-n" as you suggested
hence you can label this as user error but I keep wondering how this parameter
handling could be useful/intended.

The man page says "For options whose names are a single letter, option
arguments must either follow the option letter without intervening whitespace,
or be given as separate arguments immediately following the option that
requires them." so "-no-enum-size-warning" would be taken as "-n" with value
"o-enum-size-warning". Yet according to the man page "-n" does not take a
value, so it seems the trailing characters will be silently discarded.

Is this parameter-handling behavior intended this way? (Should one open a new
bug to discuss that?)
