Additional info:

Steps to reproduce:

* Extract the package archive (e.g. tar avzf rac

00000000 T racket_cpointer_address
00000000 T racket_cpointer_base_address
00000000 T racket_cpointer_offset

* In fact, everything is 00000000.

TLDR: For community's racket 8.4

* nm /usr/lib/libracketcs.a
* all the symbols address are 00000000, which is incorrect

I cannot see how this [1] was ever actioned for this pkg. Maybe it was fudged.

I first modified the package in Nov '22, so I wasn't aware of the LTO issue. Recompiling with -ffat-lto-objects at the moment.

EDIT: That didn't fix it, symbol table is still mangled.
