I missed the ports that have a GCC build dependency in the above
count; the GCC port is configured to use the binutils port's ld so all
the ports that build with GCC explicitly link with ld.bfd. I count
about 300 such ports now. I'll look at adding an option to have GCC
use the system linker to test these with LLD.
