Description Carlos Alberto Lopez Perez 2015-02-11 11:20:37 PST 
Revision r176442 <http://trac.webkit.org/r176442> added support for the automatic detection and usage of the gold linker.

However, setting the flag fuse-ld on the C/C++ compiler flags causes trouble with the Clang compiler when this is used in combination with icecc https://trac.webkit.org/wiki/WebKitGTK/SpeedUpBuild#Usingiceccwithclang

It seem that the proper place to set this flag is on the linker flags.

For reference, Chromium developers also faced the same problem https://codereview.chromium.org/265263002

Comment 2 Carlos Alberto Lopez Perez 2015-02-11 11:25:07 PST 
I tested the attached patch by setting both fuse-ld=bfd and fuse-ld=gold and checking what linker was used when compiling, it works fine with both GCC and Clang.

LGTM, r=me.

Just out of curiosity, what kind of problem have you seen with clang/icecc combo?
I built WebKit EFL many times nowadays without any problem with clang and icecc.

Some hosts where refusing to build with that flag, don't know why.

Example:

Run Build Command:"/usr/bin/ninja" "cmTryCompileExec3670415570"
