For lld, --image-base is the preferred way to set the base address.
lld does not actually implement -Ttext-segment, but treats it as an alias for
-Ttext. -Ttext-segment=0x60000000 combined with --no-rosegment can
create a 1.6GB executable.
Fix the problem by using --image-base for lld. GNU ld and gold will
still get -Ttext-segment. Also delete the ld --verbose fallback introduced
in 2013, which is no longer relevant or correct (the default linker
script has changed).
