I don't really have a problem with this change.  But, if we make this change, please include a change to the release notes *now*.  This is something which may catch users off guard and confuse them and require them to go looking for what happened.

As an aside, I think that it is high time that we consider the `-mlinker-version=` option coming over to Linux (and Windows?).  macOS has had this option for a long time, and it allows you to properly control the linker invocation because you know what version of the linker you are using (with a default version that is determined at runtime).
