            Bug ID: 25023
           Summary: Different output when linking archive or object file
                    directly, while using -T option
           Product: binutils
           Version: 2.33 (HEAD)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED

Reproducer code

I have a symbol marked with __attribute__((section(".something"))) and I'd like
to place it into a custom output section.

It works when I link the object file directly into the executable, but LD does
not place anything into my output section, when I place the .o file into an
archive and link with the archive.

I can't find the reason why, and I'm not sure if it's the LD issue, or I'm
missing some option.

My simplified reproducer code is attached.

I've tested on binutils 2.33 branch with gcc 9.2. But I've also tried older gcc
(4.9 something), and the result is the same.
