Aha, the systemd maintainers *did* actually previously disable
gold for this particular reason [1].
Back then, they were primarily concerned about sparc though
and since sparc was recently removed from Debian, they dropped
the patch which resulted in the recent linking problems on
sparc64.
I will perform a manual rebuild of systemd on sparc64 later
today which will be linked using ld/bfd instead of gold.
