> There was a long discussion between two NetBSD maintainers about this (both already in the reviewers list of this patch). I'm not sure if there is an existing thread that would be better to follow up on as opposed to starting a fresh thread.

The discussion is ongoing since 2017 and we have an impasse.

> I think the question was: should the path search logic be handled in the `clang` driver or in LLD itself. FWIW, I prefer that NetBSD follow the same design as every other platform here with the (somewhat C and C++ specific) search logic provided by the `clang` driver.

Path logic is unfortunately just the tip of iceberg of customization we need, but it's true that its the first problem to encounter when attempting to use lld/NetBSD. Depending on the approach of solving it we can follow up with other changes.
