Sorry for the delay.

Same result with a build from upstream binutils git version bd16da5:

$ i686-w64-mingw32-ld --version
GNU ld (GNU Binutils) 2.25.51.20150601

$ i686-w64-mingw32-gcc --version
i686-w64-mingw32-gcc (GCC) 4.9.2

$ i686-w64-mingw32-gcc -flto true.c

Downgrading to "prev" package fixes this.

$ i686-w64-mingw32-ld --version
GNU ld (GNU Binutils) 2.24.51.20140411
