I think LDFLAGS are really processed by cc, no? So we do not use ld,

No; compare the man pages for ld and gcc.
For example, -m32 is a gcc flag, and -melf32ppc is an ld flag. GCC
complains if you pass it -melf32ppc, and ld complains if you pass it
-m32. Look at all the -Wl options we use in grubof_LDFLAGS: -Wl means
"pass these options to the linker".
We can use either gcc or ld to link, but we need to pick one. If we use
ld, we will also need to use 'gcc -m32 -print-file-name=libc.a', since
ld cannot find libgcc on its own.
