Would you be ok with applying the current patch (mainline testing is in
progress, but as expected it correctly detected non COMDAT support on IRIX
6.5 with gas 2.16.1 and the MIPSpro ld) to mainline and the 4.1 branch now
(since it fixes a bootstrap failure) and implementing --enable-comdat in a
follow-up patch?
