Comment (by simonmar):

 After a bit of Googling around and chasing references I end up at this bug
 report: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=22266

 submitted by none other than Ben Gamari :)  Which leads to #14291, which
 is almost certainly the same bug as this one.  So there are a little
 collection of tickets here:

 * #14675 (This bug) narrowed down to ld.gold generating a bogus HSfoo.o
 * #14291, also narrowed down to ld.gold producing a bogus HSfoo.o
 * #14328, tracking the upstream bug in ld.gold
