gold is not exactly a standard linker so nobody documents this.  If you change
the default to gold you need to expect somethings to break and report them to
gold or use a newer version of gold linker.  gold itself is known to be still
not able to link the kernel or glibc in some cases so you can't expect it to
always work.
