Not that I'm aware of. mclinker is work in progress and is not yet able to link the kernel. gold should work, but I'm not aware that LTO linking has been tested to work.

Apart from this, we need a general solution to having multiple linkers installed and choosing which one to use in general, during buildworld, for ports etc.
