Summary:
This change comes from using lld for i686-windows-msvc. Before this change, lld
emits an error of:
error: relocation against symbol in discarded section: .xdata
It's possible that this could be addressed in lld, but I think this change is
reasonable on its own.
At a high level, this is being generated:
A (.text comdat) -> B (.text) -> C (.xdata comdat)
Where A is a C++ inline function, which references B, an exception handler
thunk, which references C, the exception handling info.
With this structure, lld will error when applying relocations to B if the C it
references has been discarded (some other C has been selected).
This change checks if A is comdat, and if so places the exception registration
thunk (B) in the comdata group of A (and B).
It appears that MSVC makes the __ehhandler function comdat.
Is it possible that duplicate thunks are being emitted into the final binary
with other linkers, or are they stripping the unused thunks?
