Hello everyone,

9.0.0-rc3 was tagged today from the release_90 branch at r370450. In
the Git monorepo, it's tagged as llvmorg-9.0.0-rc3.
I experienced an issue with lto. Initially not clang related but might be.

For a few months, I have been building packages using ThinLTO (
-DLLVM_ENABLE_LTO="Thin" ) and stage2. gcc for stage1.

Debian unstable and the next Ubuntu updated to gcc-9. This version is stricter
on -flto (only accept understood values ([1]).
It caused the build to fail on polly with "No ffs implementation found" (which 
is just
cmake failing with -flto=thin) [2]
This clearly makes sense.
So, I tried to use -DBOOTSTRAP_LLVM_ENABLE_LTO="Thin" to have only -flto=Thin 
used in the stage2.

However, this caused two issues:
* Some packages became much bigger (21M => 141M)
* Linking failed for some packages with:
/usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/llvm-9/lib/libclangCodeGen.a: error adding symbols: 
archive has no index; run ranlib to
one [3]

I tried to play with clang cmake file [4] but I haven't been able to fix it.

For now, I am forcing the usage of gcc-8 but this won't scale.

Anyway, probably not a blocker for the 9 release but I prefer to report this in 
case other are getting this issue.

Cheers,
Sylvestre
