  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The -fmerge-all-constants option gives non-conforming language
semantics and should not be used, but that's a separate issue.

Otherwise, it's a known issue that LTO misses references from asm
(both top-level and in functions). I think dlstart.lo and a few other
files should just be built with LTO disabled; any LTO-type
optimization in code that runs at this stage is inherently invalid,
anyway. So something like (in config.mak):

obj/ldso/dlstart.lo: CFLAGS_ALL += -fno-lto
