        <pre>Originally when building v11.1.0 for conda-forge
(<a href="https://github.com/conda-forge/llvmdev-feedstock/pull/115">https://github.com/conda-forge/llvmdev-feedstock/pull/115</a>), there was an issue
with using GCC 9 (only on PPC), so we kept using GCC 8.

Now, two major versions later, GCC 8 fails for other reaons (unrelated to
LLVM), and I wanted to try upgrading the version again, see
<a href="https://github.com/conda-forge/llvmdev-feedstock/pull/131">https://github.com/conda-forge/llvmdev-feedstock/pull/131</a>.

As it turns out the same error persists with GCC 11.1 & LLVM 13. I cannot tell
where the fault lies exactly, because there's not much output from the linker
to go on.
