libLTO has a bug in that it will keep every symbol if none is needed. We used

to hack around this in the gold plugin by deleting a module if no symbol was
needed. Unfortunately, the hack is wrong in the case of o module having no
visible symbols but still having side effects via static constructors.

The bug will have to be fixed in libLTO itself.
