* elf.c (_bfd_elf_make_section_from_shdr): Don't set SEC_EXCLUDE for SHT_GROUP sections. ld/ * ldlang.c (lang_add_section): Set SEC_EXCLUDE for SEC_GROUP sections when doing a final link. Clear SEC_EXCLUDE when doing a relocable link, except for SEC_DEBUGGING sections. * emultempl/elf32.em (gld${EMULATION_NAME}_place_orphan): Use the same condition here to drop SEC_EXCLUDE orphan sections.
