 On my Fedora 17 box, I'm using gold as the default linker, and I cannot
 link any packages built with GHC 7.6 because GHC seems to be passing an
 invalid argument to the linker.

 {{{
 $ cabal install -v random
 [... blah blah blah ...]
 /bin/ld -x --hash-size=31 --reduce-memory-overheads -r -o
 dist/build/HSrandom-1.0.1.1.o dist/build/System/Random.o
 /bin/ld: --hash-size=31: unknown option
 /bin/ld: use the --help option for usage information
 Failed to install random-1.0.1.1
 }}}

 This does not happen with GHC 7.4 or earlier.
