lld: unquote possibly quoted `EXTERN("symbol")` entry in linker script.
gold accepts quoted strings. binutils requires quoted strings for some kinds of symbols, e.g.: it accepts quoted symbols with @ in name: $ echo 'EXTERN("__libc_start_main@@GLIBC_2.2.5")' > a.script $ g++ a.script /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.8.5/../../../../lib64/crt1.o: In function `_start': (.text+0x20): undefined reference to `main' collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status but rejects them if unquoted: $ echo 'EXTERN(__libc_start_main@@GLIBC_2.2.5)' > a.script $ g++ a.script a.script: file not recognized: File format not recognized collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status To maintain compatibility with existing linker scripts support quoted strings in lld as well.
