- provide gold linker as ld.gold (default remains the usual bfd linker)
Is this gold built with plugin support? This is one of the really nice features.
Umm... no actually. Long story: I had it there and then disabled it as I got confused with enabling LTO plugin support for the BFD linker which requires gcc to be built with --enable-gold, which I do not want to do yet. But that is unneeded for plugin support in the gold linker and the BFD LTO plugin is only actually available in binutils git so none of that mattered anyway... So I should re-enable it. I also noticed I did not enable threading support for the gold linker. I will do a rebuild of binutils enabling both of those tomorrow. Allan
