Setting LD tool default to ld breaks configure check for ld used by GCC

The toplevel configure script sets "LD=ld". The ld used by GCC check
in the opcodes directory has the line
test -z "$LD" && LD="$ac_prog"
Thus, LD is never set to the linker used by GCC. This causes problems
in cases where there are multiple linkers in use, and in my particular
case a link error building the shared libbfd.
Should LD not be set in the toplevel? I imagine this will be a problem
for other packages as well.
