It may be because I use atomic code, in the reference counting.

I reported it here because it may be if interest that there are bugs in 
connection with the new linker.

The release notes says it was rewritten to speed up static linking, but there 
is none such here, so they must have done some other, unspecified things, as 
well.

That seems a good strategy. But the risk is that one forgets about the new 
linker and is left out in the cold when the old one is removed.
