<pre>Compiling for i686-unknown-linux-gnu with -fpie, it looks like lld is missing
some relocations, or applying them incorrectly, causing the use of external
global variables to fail. I boiled a bug down to this, but am not sure if I can
go further, as this is starting to go well outside my expertise.
This is using LLVM r278216, Clang r278213, LLD r278205.
Thanks for investigating!
