Failed on Ubuntu 16.04 and I filed a report with the binutils Bugzilla. https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=20159 (Turns out it was not dynamic linking that was the problem but GNU ld itself at link-time.) They have since developed a patch and I want to get this into the binutils 1.26 line that is maintained for 16.04 so we can continue to properly develop software on this distribution.
