I noticed this issue while examining load config differences between LLD and MSVC for ARM64EC. After some experimentation, I found that this behavior isn’t unique to ARM64EC: `__guard_flags` is marked as `CF_INSTRUMENTED` if any input object is built with `/guard:cf`. On ARM64EC, the load config from `msvcrt` pulls in additional code, which is enough to trigger this flag.
Since LLD has functioned well without this behavior so far, it’s unlikely to matter in practice. However, implementing it for compatibility seems straightforward enough.
