We can actually use codesearch to get a crude idea of the prevalence of this: https://codesearch.debian.net/search?q=path%3Adebian%2Frules+%5C-Wl%2C%5C-%5C-as-needed&literal=0 Any input on whether a brute grep for "-Wl,--as-needed" in debian/ rules would be sufficient to catch most instances of these?
