Build of a distro kernel in master.today got to linking phase, and went boom.

This bug isn't deterministic, but I can wedge your set into my devel
trees, and see if anything falls out.

What fell out was not the least bit useful. After days of box working
just fine despite bug being given ample enticement, it didn't take the
bait. I then build master sans patch set, which exploded on its very
first distro build, after which bug (snickered mightily and) went back
to into hiding.
