Our last discussion[1] about LTO ended at a similar point. LTO can be 
disabled for specific files. And, besides its optimization benefits, it 
can also detect type mismatches in different modules.
I have a VM built with gcc 8 that mostly works. For example, I can update 
an image from the trunk repository, but some floating point tests fail.
