This used to work, this is something I use myself, and right now, this is broken with no good way for code to work around it. When I submitted my MR for NetworkManager, I left this broken, I only fixed the clang+LLD case, and I highly suspect the fact that GCC+LLD is now broken will be considered by others to reflect worse on LLD than on GCC.

Yes, https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=52384, marked as blocking for 13.0.1 so a decision is made one way or the other before we unleash the "real" release on the world.
