If it works, then it is right :-).

You can use the "-Wl,<linker_command_line_switch>" syntax to add
linker switches to xgcc's command line.  Note - you need to include
the single or double dashes of the linker command line switch in the
above, so if you wanted to pass --verbose switch on to the linker you
would use: -Wl,--verbose.
