Comment (by tom):

 We seem to use a different technique for merging libraries than Martin:
 https://searchfox.org/mozilla-
 central/rev/d1e33e3e11f559952d7d80e722d26a6cf5dd80ac/taskcluster/scripts/misc
 /build-clang-8-mingw.sh#125

 I don't know if ours is reproducible.  But Martin can probably upstream
 that clang change fairly easily. And I should - if not copy your approach
 - add a comment about it in our build.
