Tom, I have pushed another version to github PR to trigger CI, and am
still working on clang. You can look at the github PR if you want to
try yourself. I have also added patch that disables
-ffunction-section/fdata-section on arm.

After I manage to make it all work in CI I will send v2 to mailing list.
