Description
The -Wl flag is supposed to be a way to pass options to the linker, indirectly via the compiler driver (e.g. gcc), but seeing as buggy build systems often pass it to ld support for it exists directly in the linker; the problem is support isn't good enough. The linker chokes on arguments in the form of -Wl,-z,assert-deflib (which is perfectly valid) because it's caught out by the second comma.
