Makes > sense to me to have gcc decide. Like I said, I don't object to any new gcc hacks people want to do. Nor to people just choosing directories for .../ld symlinks in their packaging and using -B. I just don't really care about that. The --enable-gold=both installation setup is enough for me and I don't want merging that delayed any more because of discussing more ideas we might add on top. Thanks, Roland
