--- Comment #2 from Cary Coutant <ccoutant at gmail dot com> ---
I believe this only matters because clang's integrated assembler doesn't
discard the ".L" symbols. Ideally, all those symbols can be dropped from the .o
files, and the linker won't need to discard them. That will save space not only
in the linker output, but also in all the .o files.

If you build with --no-integrated-as, I bet you won't need --discard-locals.

(This may have already been fixed in clang by now; I've reported the issue
earlier.)
