I don't think that is a code path where that is possible right now, bu...

We have a patch[1] in review to address one of the problems by switching to using a linker script instead of GNU ld's -N option. Another issue is that some bootloader components are created by the linker directly as binary objects, using --oformat binary. (Other bootloader components
