It is in the GCC specs file, in the link-arch* stanzas, generally
looking vaguely like this:

-m elf32_sparc -Y P,/usr/lib %{shared:-shared}   %{!shared:     %{!ibcs:       %{!static:         %{rdynamic:-export-dynamic}         %{!dynamic-linker:-dynamic-linker /lib/ld-linux.so.2}}         %{static:-static}}} 

(this is for a sparc32 box, though, but the changes needed for x86_64
should be obvious in this light).


(Of course, changing the name of the dynamic linker will render programs
you compile pretty much unrunnable on other systems which name it
differently.)
