I have binutils with gold with the changelog showing the entry from April 1st
this year but not newer, so it's lagging behind trunk/head.

While compiling the linux kernel 2.6.30-rc5, it complained with:

  LD      .tmp_vmlinux1                                                        
      
ld: -X: unknown option                                                         
      
ld: use the --help option for usage information                                
      
make: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1

And really, ld --help showed no such flag but man page for gnu ld showed:

-X
--discard-locals
    Delete all temporary local symbols. (These symbols start with
system-specific local label prefixes, typically .L for ELF systems or L for
traditional a.out systems.) 

Use of this flag in linux is new and optional, but I think it should be added to
gold.

This is 64bit gnu/linux on Intel Core2, namely Gentoo ~amd64.
