The most obvious use is for running tests on static libraries (where there's .S code with conditionals for PIC / non-PIC or shared / non-shared, and the non-PIC / non-shared cases get very little testing normally).
Thanks. I'll check to what extent this has bit-rotted and if this facility can be salvaged.
