I had to do this when testing gold as = well (we end up with ld-gold and ld-bfd and ld being a symlink to one of = them). Yes, a symlink is of course an easy solution post-install. But 'ld' is = built as part of 'make toolchain', I believe, so this approach wouldn't = work if I wanted mclinker to be used as the linker in 'make buildworld'. = The newly built 'ld' in /usr/obj/ would be used as the linker instead.
