Nope.  This was caused by the previous bug and the change to using
gcc as the driver program to run the newly built linker.  Using `-B'
doesn't override the GCC configure option `--with-ld='.  The same
problem occurs with using gcc to run the newly build assembler
(`-B' doesn't override `--with-as=').  I think we need to revert
to the previous technique for running these tools in the ld
testsuite.

To work around this problem, I installed the newly built tools.
This fixed most of the ld FAILS but we are still left with the
following:
