Synopsis: -omagic and -o magic have different effects
State-Changed-From-To: analyzed->closed

State-Changed-Why:
This was never a GCC bug to begin with. The problem is that GCC passes the -o option directly to the linker.
The linker was catching -omagic as a synonym for the --omagic long option. Likewise, -output would cause
trouble.
The linker has been fixed in CVS binutils so that -omagic and -output are no longer accepted.
This fixes the problem.
