Ian pointed out off-list that the gold patch had been approved by him
for commit after the bfd patch was done, and that I didn't check it

So, I just applied it, tested (gold / as / binutils on i686-linux),
and checked it in.

        * symtab.cc (Symbol_table::sized_write_symbol): Set symbol size
        to zero when writing undefined symbols.
