A small C++ test case to validate GCC LTO (link time optimization) subsystem.
This C++ program does not do anything and just serves as minimum test case for validation of GCC's LTO (link time optimization) subsystem. At the time of writing (November 2020) LTO fails with a segmentation fault for all versions of GCC from 4.9 to 9. For versions 4.8 (the oldest version tested) and 10 compilation and linking completes sucessfully.
