Dear colleagues, Please, count my vote to include gold linker into LFS or create new binutils page into the BLFS book to be considered as «After LFS Action». I am not sure that we have to make gold as default linker. The reason for my vote is simple. As part of my "after BLFS" activities I am trying to install Swift compiler and its companion tools and libraries from sources. Swift build system requires gold linker by default. Actually, I already installed Swift on Gentoo sucessfully but not on LFS. Swift compiler working but with Swift REPL I always get segfault. Today - I hate got a success - I do not what was the reason. Probably, you also have your "after BLFS" projects which requires gold linker. So, I vote for including gold linker.
