Gentoo bug to track the upstream issue: https://github.com/rui314/mold/issues/987

On ppc64 every package trying to use mold as system linker fails with "mold: fatal: /usr/lib/gcc/powerpc64-unknown-linux-gnu/12/crtbeginS.o:(.text): cannot find a symbol in .opd for R_PPC64_REL24 at offset 0x0" in the config phase.

This is not the case for amd64 and musl-amd64 on my boxes. Only seen this on ppc64 so far, musl-ppc64 and ppc not tested yet.

See emerge.log and config.log from sys-apps/less-608-r2 attached here.

Upstream's claim is we shouldn't strip compiler internals like crtbegin*.

In a sense, I'm generally inclined to agree unless something tells us we _should_ do that.

On the other, I feel like surely this would've come up before if it was actually wrong? (I know that's not a strong argument.)
