-ffunction-sections -fno-unique-section-names =>

.text.%
.text.startup.%
.text.hot.%
.text.cold.%
...

?

I agree that it is superior. If GCC wants to support this scheme, that looks
fine to me. It is likely that I can migrate Clang to this scheme as well.

I think

.text%
.text.startup%
.text.hot%
.text.cold%
...

is slightly worse.
