You pass the the archive name + offset to `lto::InputFile::create`,<br>
assuming your linker uses the new LTO API (and I'm not sure whether<br>
ld64 already switched).<br>
The linker knows the archive name from which it's fetching the member,<br>
as well as its offset (it asks libArchive about it, for lld).<br>
I'm not sure how it works ld64, but of course, to get this mechanism<br>
working, you need some linker modifications.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div><div>My first priority is fixing the old API so that we can release LDC with ThinLTO working for the stdlib on current OSX setups.
