Thanks. I need some advice mostly. There's still the question of bogus
backtrace returned by valgrind. Is this a valgrind issue or the debug
data produced by gdb or something else? If we cannot rely on
backtraces with LTO, this would be a big drawback.

No, LTO doesn't seem to be relevant, despite what I said earlier.
With some programs (I tried a few, some crash, so don't, no idea what
is the rule, but it seems that the very simple ones don't):

In mock buildroot of systemd:
$ ninja -C x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu systemd
$ gdb x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu/systemd
GNU gdb (GDB) Fedora 8.3.50.20190321-3.fc31
...
$ r
...
Trying to run as user instance, but the system has not been booted with systemd.
[Inferior 1 (process 2466) exited with code 01]
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

So the crash seems to be when returning to the gdb prompt, either because
the debugee exited or crashed or hit a breakpoint (all three end the same).
