Hi,

this small patch series adapts the race fix for collision checks when moving object files into place [1] to retry linking the object into place instead of silently ignoring the error, as suggested by Peff in [2].

The series at [1] has already been merged into 'next', so this is built on top of 1b4e9a5f8b (Merge branch 'ps/build-meson-html', 2025-01-02) with ps/object-collision-check at 0ad3d65652 (object-file: fix race in object collision check, 2024-12-30) merged into it.

Thanks!

Patrick
