[I finally provide a small source file and steps for
processing it to produce the BFD_ASSERT notices.]

NOTE: Only tested in the powerpc64 context, with system clang 8
for c++ and base/binutil for ld and such.

I used the simple_version_script.map from llvm60 in my environment.

(Also noted in bugzilla comment #13:)

The following small source code file and the few steps
to build/link it produce the message:

# more small_link_failure.cpp
unsigned long fixed_seed_override=3D 0xdeadc0de;

inline unsigned long get_execution_seed()
{
  const  unsigned long seed_prime =3D 0xff51afd7ed558ccdULL;
  static unsigned long seed =3D fixed_seed_override ? =
fixed_seed_override
                                           : (unsigned long)seed_prime;
  return seed;
}

unsigned long f()
{
  return get_execution_seed();
}

# c++ -c small_link_failure.cpp

# rm -f small_link_failure.a
# /usr/bin/ar qc small_link_failure.a small_link_failure.o

# "/usr/bin/powerpc64-unknown-freebsd13.0-ld" \

"--version-script" =

"-Bshareable" \
"-o" "small_link_failure.so.1.0.1" \
"small_link_failure-1.0.so"

The resultant output is:

/usr/bin/powerpc64-unknown-freebsd13.0-ld: BFD (GNU Binutils) 2.32 =
assertion fail elflink.c:2935
/usr/bin/powerpc64-unknown-freebsd13.0-ld: BFD (GNU Binutils) 2.32 =
