            // First a bit of background. On Windows, the file format is not ELF,
            // but COFF (at least according to LLVM). COFF doesn't officially allow
            // for section names over 8 characters, apparently. Our metadata
            // section, ".note.rustc", you'll note is over 8 characters.
            //
            // On more recent versions of gcc on mingw, apparently the section name
            // is *not* truncated, but rather stored elsewhere in a separate lookup
            // table. On older versions of gcc, they apparently always truncated th
            // section names (at least in some cases). Truncating the section name
            // actually creates "invalid" objects [1] [2], but only for some
            // introspection tools, not in terms of whether it can be loaded.
            //
            // Long story short, passing this flag forces the linker to *not*
            // truncate section names (so we can find the metadata section after
            // it's compiled). The real kicker is that rust compiled just fine on
            // windows for quite a long time *without* this flag, so I have no idea
            // why it suddenly started failing for liblibc. Regardless, we
            // definitely don't want section name truncation, so we're keeping this
            // flag for windows.
