If you have the following linker script:
  SECTIONS
  {
    ALL 0x1000 : { *(*) }
  }

and try to link pretty much anything using it you get the errors

ld.lld: error: section type mismatch for .rela.plt
>>> <internal>:(.rela.plt): SHT_RELA
>>> output section ALL: SHT_PROGBITS

ld.lld: error: section type mismatch for .rela.dyn
>>> <internal>:(.rela.dyn): SHT_RELA
>>> output section ALL: SHT_PROGBITS

ld.lld: error: section type mismatch for .symtab
>>> <internal>:(.symtab): SHT_SYMTAB
>>> output section ALL: SHT_PROGBITS

ld.lld: error: section type mismatch for .symtab_shndx
>>> <internal>:(.symtab_shndx): SHT_SYMTAB_SHNDX
>>> output section ALL: SHT_PROGBITS

ld.lld: error: section type mismatch for .shstrtab
>>> <internal>:(.shstrtab): SHT_STRTAB
>>> output section ALL: SHT_PROGBITS

ld.lld: error: section type mismatch for .strtab
>>> <internal>:(.strtab): SHT_STRTAB
>>> output section ALL: SHT_PROGBITS

GNU ld doesn't match such sections for this same linker script, and instead
generates separate output sections for them.
