We nee to support different variables, like TLS, data and bss variables.

Why do we need TLS? Right now, it's not supported by nm. Or am I wrong?

About BSS and DATA I agree that it would be handy. I can theoretically
covered with code in get_variable_section/bss_initializer_p. But it's
quite logic and I'm not sure we should simulate it.

@Honza/Richi: Do you have any opinion about that?
Or could we just fix the damn broken configure scripts?  Isn't that what's
driving all this nonsense?

Hello.

Yes. Apparently libtool people were unable to come up with a reasonable
workaround for that. One can read technical details in this PR:
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=25355


The HP-UX bits for this in configure work correctly.    I verified that months
ago and even have a sed script which will take a broken configure script and fix
it.

How many packages will you have to fix?

The current LTO plug-in extension will work fine with gcc10 + latest bintuils 
release
branch. That's a viable solution for us openSUSE.
