I guess it's possible that some object file involved in the cc1plus link,
perhaps from libiberty, was built with SHF_MERGE set in some section.
Then when linking, we try to mix sections with differing SHF_MERGE flags
to the same output section.  That ought to be legal, so please see let
Jakub have a look at the object files involved in the link.
