bool
bfd_elf_gc_sections (bfd *obfd, struct bfd_link_info *info)
{
...
  if (!obed->can_gc_sections
      || !is_elf_hash_table (info->hash))
    {
      _bfd_error_handler(_("warning: gc-sections option ignored"));
      return true;
    }

The problem with ld --help is we run into issues like PR121457 if your binutils
was built with --enable-targets=all.
