Really? I only get this when I use -flto.

In general, you should give the log for the most simple build failure.

I've had a look, but I don't know how to deal with this one. Seems like an odd case. Maybe someone with more LTO experience will have a better idea.

proposed fix

I've made a fix and created an issue in upstream tracker: https://github.com/raspberrypi/utils/issues/75
The problem is that LTO aggressively removes sections from object files.
