This issue is still present - even the LTO linker plugin identifies files via that mechanism :/ Looks like simple things "stick" ... libiberties simple-object could be used to instead query for a .gnu.lto_.opts section. The collect2 issue might eventually be "fixed" by making LTO require using the linker-plugin path.
