I gave this a quick try but ended up with:
VDSO arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso64.so.dbg
/usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/x86_64-cros-linux-gnu/binutils-bin/2.27.0/ld.bfd.real:
cannot find -lgcc
I guess the solution is to specify the correct directory in LDPATH,
but not sure where that would be coming from.
TBH I'd prefer to leave this to someone more fluent with binutils, I'm
not particularily efficient working in this area.
