  1680. This is a build time optimization. It has no impact on dynamic
  1681. linking at runtime, which doesn't use linker scripts.

  1685. The amount of time saved by this optimization is actually too small to
  1686. measure. The linker just had to search the library path to find the
  1687. linker script, so the dentries are cache hot if it has to search the
  1688. same path again. But it's what glibc does, so we do it too.
