I'm not sure if they are any distro that uses gold by default, instead
of the more venerable/tested "ld". I know Ubuntu doesn't.

I think in your case the problem was because you still had the libraries
from Ubuntu's older package installed in /usr/lib, and as you mentioned,
the linker looks in that location before trying /usr/local/lib. In such
a "custom" setup, you would need to override LDFLAGS. But someone that
has nothing installed in /usr/lib should get the libraries in
/usr/local/lib selected by the linker automatically.

Cheers,
Alexandre
