https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D240716 --- Comment #8 from Mark Millard <marklmi26-fbsd@yahoo.com> --- (In reply to sid from comment #5) QUOTE If LD is not being used, why is it an argument? END QUOTE Some makefiles use ${LD} (or ${XLD}) to request linking. many do not. That some do use them is enough to justify the existence of LD (and XLD) in the infrastructure. In effect you are requesting changes to a large number of makefiles to work differently than they do now: to explicitly use ${LD} (or ${XLD}) based link commands instead of what they now use. There are issues, such as powerpc family --secure-plt clang output being incompatible with modern binutils' ld: ld reverts to bss plt and returns on error code because it did so. One can not switch linkers independently in all cases, only some. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
