Description

It's known that binutils-2.38 starts to break some packages if LTO is enabled: ​https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28879

Some BLFS packages (esp. those from Mozilla) is enabling LTO by default and can trigger this issue. So it's better to patch binutils before 11.1 freeze to avoid further issues in BLFS.
