            Bug ID: 38139
           Summary: ThinLTO build has undefined symbols due to powf-ldexpf

Here's another issue from the Firefox ThinLTO build
(https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1448976)

It's interesting that the source file references `powf` and yet the missing
symbol is `ldexpf`. I assume the compiler is attempting some optimization
there.

Presumably, whatever MSVC library we're linking against would be able to
provide an implementation for `powf`, but it doesn't have one for `ldexpf`
(maybe it's an inline function in the MS headers or something?).

$ cat mathutil.cpp
extern "C" float powf(float, float);
int main(int argc, char** argv) {
  return powf(2.0f, argc);
}

$ clang-cl -c mathutil.cpp -O1 -flto=thin

$ lld-link -nodefaultlib -entry:main mathutil.obj
lld-link.exe: error: undefined symbol: ldexpf
>>> referenced by lto.tmp:(main)
