New submission from Gregory P. Smith:

The error message you will see when building may look something like:

clang -pthread -DNDEBUG -g -fwrapv -O3 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes  
-fprofile-instr-generate -flto Parser/acceler.o Parser/grammar1.o 
Parser/listnode.o Parser/node.o Parser/parser.o Parser/bitset.o

clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
Makefile:793: recipe for target 'Parser/pgen' failed
make[2]: *** [Parser/pgen] Error 1

as seen on ubuntu 16.04.

Related to 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/llvm-toolchain-snapshot/+bug/1254970 
which suggests we also need -B/usr/lib/gold-ld in our LDFLAGS and/or CFLAGS 
when using clang on Linux with LTO.

testing with it set in both still runs into errors; someone with clang LTO 
experience will need to untangle this.

(is this related to why --with-lto doesn't work on MacOS as well?)
