Description
LLD does not recognize the linker script argument when in i386pe linker emulation mode.
Minimum reproducible command:
ld.lld -m i386pe -T linkerscript.ld
Results in lld: error: unknown argument: -T
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by running the minimum reproducible command with lld and the provided linker-script argument, then trace how i386pe linker emulation parses command-line options. Done means -T linkerscript.ld is accepted in i386pe mode without the reported unknown-argument error, with relevant regression coverage added.
