Archive file in linker script input section ignored

Hi Nick,

thanks for your response.

I've just verified again that this link does actually produce the output
I described. Are you really sure it can't work?
I've also used this method in the past to include binary data in special
 sections, that is why I'm so confused over the current result.
Admittedly I've previously always guarded such includes with a KEEP(...)
but that did not seem to make a difference in this minimal reproducer.

Best regards,

Tobias Schramm
