I tried to separate the lists, but that also turned out to be tricky because of ordering, e.g. in `foo = 0x1 SECTIONS { bar = foo } baz = bar` the symbols outside and inside `SECTIONS` have to be added to the symbol table in that particular order which is difficult when they're in separate lists. Given that, I think the current solution albeit not pretty is still the simplest one.
