Strange, sounds like a binutils issue though I could be wrong.

I suggest that instead of switching distros you should rather first
try 4.14.0 to verify if there was a regression affecting your system.
And if so, then a bisect will certainly be welcome. If it still does
not work, then maybe a different distro could help, though I doubt it.
