Looks as if "ar" is segfaulting again ...

That was built with binutils 2.35-8.fc33
Just an FYI binutils-2.35-9 is in the
buildroots. It's got the fix for the LTO
issue, but does not turn on LTO for binutils itself (that'll be in the -10
build).
I've confirmed that the -9 build will correctly build binutils-2.35-10. I've
also confirmed that the -9 build will correctly build libguestfs.
I'm going to take my local -10 build and use that to build libguestfs as an
additional sanity check.

ps. I found out why SuSE didn't stumble on these issues. They disabled LTO in
binutils. Their ChangeLog says it's just the testsuite, but the implementation
is for the entire build. I suspect they probably have a few packages that are
either silently broken or where they've turned off LTO due to failures without a
real root-cause-analysis.
