I asked about progress recently on ELFToolchain ld, but it currently =
only handles simple programs: =
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=3D29593381

LLVM ld is "in its very early stages of development." =
(http://lld.llvm.org)

gold is GPLv3.

MCLinker seems to me like the most promising project at the moment. But =
in the end, working code is what counts :-)
