/tmp/ccTW8mBm.debug.temp.o: file not recognized: file format not recognized

The problem is clearly reported by readelf:
readelf: foo1.o.debug.temp.o: Warning: Section 2 has an out of range sh_link value of 65321
readelf: foo1.o.debug.temp.o: Warning: Section 5 has an out of range sh_link value of 65321
readelf: foo1.o.debug.temp.o: Warning: Section 10 has an out of range sh_link value of 65323
readelf: foo1.o.debug.temp.o: Warning: [ 2]: Link field (65321) should index a symtab section.
readelf: foo1.o.debug.temp.o: Warning: [ 5]: Link field (65321) should index a symtab section.
readelf: foo1.o.debug.temp.o: Warning: [10]: Link field (65323) should index a string section.
because simple_object_elf_copy_lto_debug_sections doesn't adjust sh_info and
sh_link fields in ElfNN_Shdr if they are in between SHN_{LO,HI}RESERVE
inclusive. Not adjusting those is incorrect though, SHN_{LO,HI}RESERVE
range is only relevant to the 16-bit fields, mainly st_shndx in ElfNN_Sym
where if one needs >= SHN_LORESERVE section number, SHN_XINDEX should be
used instead and .symtab_shndx section should contain the real section
index, and in ElfNN_Ehdr e_shnum and e_shstrndx fields, where if >=
SHN_LORESERVE value is needed it should put those into
Shdr[0].sh_{size,link}. But, sh_{link,info} are 32-bit fields which can
contain any section index.
Note, as simple-object-elf.c mentions, binutils from 2.12 to 2.18 (so before
2011) used to mishandle the > 63.75K sections case and assumed there is a
hole in between the sections, but what
simple_object_elf_copy_lto_debug_sections does wouldn't help in that case
for the debug temp object creation, we'd need to detect the case also in
that routine and take it into account in the remapping etc. I think
it is not worth it given that it is over 10 years, if somebody needs
63.75K or more sections, better use more recent binutils.

(simple_object_elf_copy_lto_debug_sections): Remap sh_info and

This directory contains the -liberty library of free software.
It is a collection of subroutines used by various GNU programs.
Current members include:
getopt -- get options from command line
obstack -- stacks of arbitrarily-sized objects
strerror -- error message strings corresponding to errno
strtol -- string-to-long conversion
strtoul -- string-to-unsigned-long conversion
We expect many of the GNU subroutines that are floating around to
eventually arrive here.
The library must be configured from the top source directory. Don't
try to run configure in this directory. Follow the configuration
instructions in ../README.
Please report bugs to "gcc-bugs@gcc.gnu.org" and send fixes to
"gcc-patches@gcc.gnu.org". Thank you.
ADDING A NEW FILE
=================
There are two sets of files: Those that are "required" will be
included in the library for all configurations, while those
that are "optional" will be included in the library only if "needed."
To add a new required file, edit Makefile.in to add the source file
name to CFILES and the object file to REQUIRED_OFILES.
To add a new optional file, it must provide a single function, and the
name of the function must be the same as the name of the file.
* Add the source file name to CFILES in Makefile.in and the object
file to CONFIGURED_OFILES.
* Add the function to name to the funcs shell variable in
configure.ac.
* Add the function to the AC_CHECK_FUNCS lists just after the
setting of the funcs shell variable. These AC_CHECK_FUNCS calls
are never executed; they are there to make autoheader work
better.
* Consider the special cases of building libiberty; as of this
writing, the special cases are newlib and VxWorks. If a
particular special case provides the function, you do not need
to do anything. If it does not provide the function, add the
object file to LIBOBJS, and add the function name to the case
controlling whether to define HAVE_func.
Finally, in the build directory of libiberty, configure with
"--enable-maintainer-mode", run "make maint-deps" to update
Makefile.in, and run 'make stamp-functions' to regenerate
functions.texi.
The optional file you've added (e.g. getcwd.c) should compile and work
on all hosts where it is needed. It does not have to work or even
compile on hosts where it is not needed.
ADDING A NEW CONFIGURATION
==========================
On most hosts you should be able to use the scheme for automatically
figuring out which files are needed. In that case, you probably
don't need a special Makefile stub for that configuration.
If the fully automatic scheme doesn't work, you may be able to get
by with defining EXTRA_OFILES in your Makefile stub. This is
a list of object file names that should be treated as required
for this configuration - they will be included in libiberty.a,
regardless of whatever might be in the C library.
