--- Comment #4 from Jozef Lawrynowicz <jozefl at gcc dot gnu.org> --- Since gold is not built by default, should we just disable SHF_GNU_RETAIN support if gold has been built at all, for Binutils versions without the gold patch. There's 2 weeks between the GCC "used" implying SHF_GNU_RETAIN patch and gold being fixed, so the real fix if you want SHF_GNU_RETAIN support but are using a Binutils version in this timeframe is to just upgrade. Meanwhile we should just completely turn off SHF_GNU_RETAIN if GCC can spot that a broken gold is available.
