I know, but I have not much more infos. On some project I tested, 
depending on the version of gold I get either failure to link via 
some obscure internal gold failure or broken binaries.

I started to dig in gold source code for a while to understand, 
but at some point time ran short and I had to give up.

If gold is a necessity (like it was for me on that project) then 
switching to GDC is the best option for now.

Gold behavior started to become erratic in the 
File_read::find_or_make_view zone.
