This is almost certainly guaranteed to fail on 50% of the systems I have
ever used. I think hardcoding the location of `ld' is a bad idea.
> * Cd to some directory unlikely to contain ld: (cd /; ld)
This idea, on the other hand, shows promise. Since the script can run
`ld' from anywhere, perhaps all this needs in addition is something like:
(here=`pwd`; cd /; ld; cd $here)
(to restore the original working directory afterwards). Thanks, Per.
I'll look into this.
