True for Sun ld, false for GNU ld ;-)

Or, if you really want to use GNU ld for some reason, either invoke it
indirectly with a gcc built to use gld, or by specifying the linker
emulation to use:
$ ld -m elf_x86_64 -r -o outfile obj1.o obj1.o
Because this is so messy, next to nobody runs gld manually.
