We will likely appreciate the patch a great deal as we needed to switch to lld form clang (this past week).  When we made this switch (had some size related issues with sanitizer builds in our app with ld) lld definitely complained about the symbols not being defined.

.map files were static until v25.07 and you seem to use a version
prior to 23.11 LTS.
The dynamic generation of .map has not been backported, so
unfortunately this current patch will not help in your case.
