(The FC8 gcc does pass a --build-id option which gold doesn't recognize--I'm working on that one). Joe: thanks for the note–glad it’s working for you.

Many complain, but few fix. Quick lazyweb question: does gcc need to know that it's talking to gold (e.g. configure option when building gcc) or can I just "mv gold /usr/bin/ld" and go?

It's a very fast drop-in replacement. Thanks! I'll be using it immediately to speed up the build/debug/fix/rebuild cycle that I live in these days.

BTW I skimmed bits of the code and I would like to say -- excellent job. I wish all the GNU tools were written this way. Congratulations!
