Yep. Can I suggest:
-Wl,--as-needed has been added to the default profile's LDFLAGS.
This option optimizes the linking process, only linking binaries to
libraries that are trully needed. This way, fewer libraries are loaded
at runtime and fewer packages need to be rebuilt after library updates.
To take advantage of the new default you can either rebuild world now or just
allow the system to migrate incrementally as it updates.
Please note that setting LDFLAGS="<your flags>" in your make.conf will
override the profile defaults. If you want to add additional LDFLAGS it is
recommended to use LDFLAGS="${LDFLAGS} <your flags>" instead to avoid this.
For more information on --as-needed, read [1].
