ld:built in linker script:49: parse error

[Benjamin Kosnik]

with current binutils installed on x86/linux:

%cat 1.c
#include <stdio.h>

int main()
{
  int i = 0;
  return 0;
}

%gcc 1.c
/mnt/hd/ahimsa/H-x86-src/bin/ld:built in linker script:49: parse error
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

where:
%ld --version
GNU ld version 2.12.90 20020303

and
%./ld --version
GNU ld version 2.12.90 20020225


works correctly.
