It does pass -lc (if not saw_libc). You can see what is invoked with which arguments using -v (e.g. gcc/gccrs -B gcc -v foobar.rs). One of the things we are using is the crt1.o startup code, which provides the _start symbol and which relies on libc (in particular __libc_start_main and abort). The patch wasn't really meant to change how we currently do assembling, linking and startup. But just to remove those parts that were unnecessary because they were go specific.
