<pre>When invoked with the -v option in addition to a full link command line, GNU ld
will print the version information and then proceed with the link. lld prints
the version number and then exits.
This is an issue because GCC's verbose mode (gcc -v) in turn passes -v in the
linker invocation.
lld:
% ./ld -v --eh-frame-hdr -dynamic-linker /libexec/ld-elf.so.1 --hash-style=both
--enable-new-dtags -o a.out /usr/lib/crt1.o /usr/lib/crti.o /usr/lib/crtbegin.o
-L/usr/lib hello.o -lgcc --as-needed -lgcc_s --no-as-needed -lc -lgcc
--as-needed -lgcc_s --no-as-needed /usr/lib/crtend.o /usr/lib/crtn.o
