This looks like it requires more thorough discussions, doesn't it? We will also 
need discussions with the binutils side. We requested a GCC compiler driver 
option long ago but we do not reach a consensus 
(https://gcc.gnu.org/legacy-ml/gcc/2020-01/msg00358.html). IMHO the approval 
was in haste. With all due respect, I think I've seen such hasty approval 
(without any mentioning why such decisions are justifiable) and hasty commits 
in this area before several times, so I'll click "Request Changes" just in case 
of an accidental commit.
