How dare you be this dismissive of *anyone's* work without an alternative to offer?
The way I read it, sylware did offer an alternative: classic binutils 'ld'. He says even as slow as it is, it's better because of the C++ issue.
You want something done *your* way, do it yourself. Otherwise, take what you're offered.
Surely you don't mean that. We all take a third option all the time: do without.

Doing without is a subclass of doing it yourself.
