// Right now, we only support linker-level dead code elimination on Linux
// and FreeBSD using GNU or LLD linkers (based on the --gc-sections flag).
// The Apple ld on OS X supports a similar flag (-dead_strip) that doesn't
// require emitting the symbols into different sections. The MinGW ld doesn't
// seem to support --gc-sections at all.

// On Windows, the MSVC link.exe / lld-link.exe has `/REF`; LLD enforces
// separate sections with LTO, so do the same here.
