Huh, it looks odd.  Why didn't you simply add the loop to merge_and_complain?
That way you verify each TUs arguments against the first TUs.

I think appending the linker -Xassembler makes most sense, appropriately
diagnosing is difficult here and repeating compile-time assembler options
will be common.
