When linking with -profile then -lc_p is used instead of -lc, and the former is only available as a static library. Thus this should be treated like a static link, and no shared libgcc should be linked in. But when HAVE_LD_AS_NEEDED then -lgcc_s is also being linked in by default, causing a shared link that uses both libc_p and libc, and the resulting binary will crash.
