Bug 223680: www/firefox: DTRACE=on fails with /usr/bin/ld: error:
../../js/src/jsarray.o: string table non-null terminated
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=223680



--- Description ---
I'd like to use lld in order to fix bug 222641. jsarray.o links fine until
processed by dtrace -G. bfd and gold are unaffected. Any clue why?
