Hi dear ruiu: 
The Second PLT in x86-64 psABI has been settled more than one year ago, considering the compatibility and performance, the designers carefully selected this way at that time.
And there seems no overwhelming reason to change the SPEC, for many people think the Second PLT way is more flexible and compatible.
I think it would be ill-advised to let LLD keep different with GCC in this point for the GCC has adopt this way for one year.
I wish you can reconsider the technology of Second PLT, and we also wish you can join us in discussing this point at https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/x86-64-abi/nWA7tcnjPnk.
Thank you very much!
