I'm puzzled. Seriously, when was the last time you actually checked how
much customization contains on a per-OS base in GNU ld? Yes, I'm
including the various build scripts because GNU ld is generally build by
a mix of hard-coded logic in the tool itself and various adjustments in
the linker scripts it is shipped with. But they are all a builtin part
of GNU ld as far as the end user is concerned. It is pretty much
irrelevant from a point of functionality where that logic is, but
skipping is a serious usability issue.
