On my laptop, with absolutely no attention to updating binutils, I get [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> ld --version GNU ld (GNU Binutils) 2.17.50.20070726-4 (SUSE Linux) If you keep both an old and a new binutils installed in separate directories, it's difficult to assure use of the new one, unless you reconfigure your gcc --with-ld so that gcc's implicit use of ld will take the new one.
