CPython fails to build with LLVM's link-time optimization (LTO) in Mac OS. Very similar commands work on Linux.

I'm currently configuring CPython as follows:

on Linux:
RANLIB="ar -s --plugin=/path/to/llvm/lib/LLVMgold.so" CC=/path/to/llvm/bin/clang CXX=/path/to/llvm/bin/clang++ CFLAGS="-g -flto" LDFLAGS="-flto" ./configure

on Mac OS:
CC=/path/to/llvm/bin/clang CXX=/path/to/llvm/bin/clang++ CFLAGS="-g -flto" LDFLAGS="-flto" ./configure

The RANLIB variable should not be needed on Mac, because its toolchain does not need a GOLD plugin.

On Linux, the above builds correctly and passes most of the test suite. On Mac, I receive the following error (similar for other extensions):
