cmd/compile: does not understand old linker flags #8104

liblink/obj6.c uses ctxt->debugstack to emit stack underflow checks. The flag was
meant to be initialized from -K 6l flag.
But now liblink is invoked from the compiler. And the compiler does not initialize
ctxt->debugstack. Moreover the compiler already uses -K flag for a different purpose.

I suspect this relates to a bunch of other flags as well.
We need to choose some other names for the old linker flags and read them in all users
of liblink.

Comment 1:

Maybe working as intended.

Labels changed: added release-none.

Status changed to Accepted.

There are lots of these it seems, my reading finds at least -Z, -W, -S, -Q, -1, -O (I think).
