This is the wrong list for linker enhancements. You should look for
binutils mailing lists. However "collect2" which is part of gcc and is
called before the linker (for C++)- could also detect this and give
the same warning. I would bet that collect2 is the wrong place for
this enhancement because it will work only for C++, not for C.

This is wrong, collect2 is also used for C code.
