only tested this under 3.3.4/4.0 but it seems to go back a few years.

it will pass -dynamic-linker to cc1 also.

and seems to have been noticed before
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2000-10/msg00437.html

from what i can tell it suppresses the passing of -dynamic-linker to ld
(ignoring that it gets sent to cc1.) To use an alternative dynamic-linker you 
can do something like


cd /tmp
cp /lib/ld-linux.so.2 . 
echo 'main(){}' >foo.c
gcc -v -dynamic-linker -Wl,-dynamic-linker /tmp/ld-linux.so.2 foo.c
readelf -l a.out | grep -A1 INTERP

not sure whether this particular usage of it should be limited to a custom spec 
with -specs=... but i expected it to accept an option that overrides the default
-dynamic-linker sent to ld
