-z option of ld.exe

[David Arnstein <arnstein at panix dot com>]

I am having trouble with a typical Linux configure script that is not
part of cygwin. The configure script includes this:
	LDFLAGS="-Wl,-z,defs"

Apparently, this causes a problem for cygwin's ld.exe. If I execute
the simple command
	ld -z

I get
	ld: unrecognized option '-z'
	ld: use the --help option for usage information

However, the cygwin man page for ld.exe does reference the -z option.

I would like to know if the cygwin maintainers intend to support this
option. 

Output from cygcheck -s -v -r attached.
