Small analysis:

$ gcc test-nlist.c -I../libelf -c
$ gcc test-nlist.o ../libelf/libelf.so
$ gcc ../libelf/libelf.so test-nlist.o
/usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/10/../../../../x86_64-suse-linux/bin/ld: test-nlist.o: in function `main':
test-nlist.c:(.text+0x91): undefined reference to `nlist'
/usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/10/../../../../x86_64-suse-linux/bin/ld: test-nlist.c:(.text+0xab): undefined reference to `nlist'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

apparently gold is fine:

$ gcc ../libelf/libelf.so test-nlist.o -fuse-ld=gold
[ok]

$ objdump -t test-nlist.o | grep nlist
test-nlist.o:     file format elf64-x86-64
0000000000000000 l    df *ABS*	0000000000000000 test-nlist.c
0000000000000000         *UND*	0000000000000000 nlist

$ objdump -t ../libelf/libelf.so | grep nlist
0000000000000000 l    df *ABS*	0000000000000000              nlist.c
00000000000113a0 l     F .text	00000000000000f1              nlist_fshash_lookup
00000000000114a0 g     F .text	0000000000000388              nlist

May it be related to some order mentioned in 51cfbaabefd6d5ebdd7513b876daf78d07470f8c?

Thanks,
