Comment:

 I have a patch that sets `codegen-units` to `1` which seems the way to
 disably Thin LTO. Alas, there is no direct option for disabling LTO yet in
 1.26.1. Moreover, using the `--set` configure option to adjust the
 `codegen-units` does not seem to work as the value gets interpreted as a
 string but we need an integer. So, I resorted to good ol' `sed`.

 I made some testbuilds and tested the compiler against the adapted script
 from https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/52044#issuecomment-402349038
 and I got matching builds and the script is happy now.

 `bug_26475_v2` (https://gitweb.torproject.org/user/gk/tor-browser-
 build.git/commit/?h=bug_26475_v2&id=e2da10a29f46762a8561e30c36915f8568d18c71)
 has the proposed workaround.
