The host is aarch64 and the target is aarch64 and the command was:

# c++ -v -o trivial trivial.cpp

So: no cross compile is involved.

Not used in the command line reported for the trivial example:

# c++ -v -o trivial trivial.cpp

> - By invoking clang with a symlink named {target}-clang[++]

Also not involved.

# echo $PATH
=
/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/home/roo=
t/bin

No -B in:

# c++ -v -o trivial trivial.cpp

I'm not cross compiling.

>=20

I'm not cross compiling.

I've no clue why the linker name it is looking for is:
aarch64-unknown-freebsd14.0-ld : seems wrong to me when
not corss compiling.

But:

# find / -name aarch64-unknown-freebsd14.0-ld -print | more
/usr/local/bin/aarch64-unknown-freebsd14.0-ld

So: it did find the only instance of what it looked for. It
just looked for the wrong thing.
