I have a configure.ac here which uses AC_PROG_LD, but I don't know
about the purpose of this macro. Unfortunately I do not find and any
doc about it.
AC_PROG_LD is a old macro from libtool (though more aptly named), you
should use LT_PATH_LD instead.
(libtool) Autoconf macros:
-- Macro: LT_PATH_LD
Add a `--with-gnu-ld' option to `configure'. Try to find the path
to the linker used by `$CC', and whether it is the GNU linker.
The result is stored in the shell variable `$LD', which is
`AC_SUBST'ed.
