--- Comment #2 from Jonathan Wakely <redi at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
Hi, thanks for trying to fix this. I need this switch to work too, otherwise
the non-PIC libiberty.a from my GCC installation conflicts with my distro's PIC
/usr/lib64/libiberty.a and prevents me linking shared libraries with -lbfd
I suggest pinging the gcc-patches list about your patch at
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2013-04/msg00167.html and CC Ian as he is a
maintainer for libiberty and he agreed on the gcc list that this is a bug.
