Can't compile (linking error "plugin needed to handle lto object" in ixwebsocket and leveldb)

Hi. As subject says. Did git clone --recursive. Ubuntu 18.10, g++ 9. Here's trimmed output:

Hi. It is probably caused by a change of compiler defaults in g++, looks like it is using slim objects instead of fat. I believe that addition of -ffat-lto-objects option to CXXFLAGS and CFLAGS will resolve this issue.
