?>I respect compatibility as long as it matters and makes sense. In this case, we don't have a good explanation on why this combination of option is banned by gold/bfd. Adding that >error check would increase the complexity of the linker, and it copies the artificial limitation that we can't explain. I don't want to say when someone asked me why this is banned >"because gold did this, so I don't know."
