Comment (by cypherpunks):

 `BIND_NOW` generated if `-z now` passed to linker.
 [https://wiki.debian.org/Hardening#DEB_BUILD_HARDENING_BINDNOW_.28ld_-
 z_now.29 Hardening Wrapper] does it during Tor Browser building. Gold
 supports `-z now` according to manual page, then wrapper doesn't work for
 gold or it's bug in linker itself.
