Hello Warner,

Den 13/12/2012 kl. 15.48 skrev Warner Losh <imp@bsdimp.com>:

> Install ld as ld.gnu during the build and after.  Make ld a small =
shell script that invokes ld.gnu by default, or something else if a =
variable is set.  Much like the way we have different mail backends to a =
common mail front end. Then ld does what people want, and you have a =
hook to do different things.

Thanks for the suggestion. Would this be acceptable in FreeBSD if I =
created a patch, or are you just suggesting it for my local testing?

Thanks,
Erik=
