not sure what we should do here. Should GHC at runtime detect what
linker is used, and pass the appropriate flags? Is there a stable path
to the GNU ld that can be used no matter whether binutils-gold is
installed or not? Is /usr/bin/ld.bfd or /usr/lib/compat-ld/ld the right
path to use? Or is it binutils-gold’s responsibility to accept any
arguments that GNU ld accepts when it installs itself as /usr/bin/ld?

Thanks,
Joachim
