This will work. Do you know what problems eglibc has linking with gold ?
may be we can fix it

If I remember right, it relies on linker script functionality which gold
just doesn't have.  I suspect this would be hard to fix and, unless
there is a pressing need to fight that particular battle, I would be
inclined not to bother.

That said, though, I haven't checked recently and it's possible that
recent versions of gold will "just work".  If you wanted to give it a
try then I think it'd just be a question of h4x0ring eglibc's configure
script slightly to get it to accept gold as a valid linker version.


I remember now. Accepting gold would be easier but changing how ld.so is built where it asks ld to spit out default linker script and then munge it before reusing it is harder part. I think status is still same. It reminds me that we probably need ld.bfd for kernel too.
