            Bug ID: 16808
           Summary: ld.gold doesn't know about -Ofast
           Product: binutils
           Version: 2.24
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: gold
          Assignee: ian at airs dot com
          Reporter: quequotion at mailinator dot com
                CC: ccoutant at google dot com

This error broke complation of systemd-git from AUR:

/usr/bin/ld.gold: fatal error: -Ofast: invalid option value (expected an
integer): fast

The man page for ld.gold says:

-O LEVEL, -optimize LEVEL
 Optimize output file size

Without specification of what qualifies for LEVEL, one must assume it means the
same as the compiler levels (-O, -O1, -O2, -Os, -O3, -Ofast).

I have compiled the same package without this problem in the past, so this
might be a regression (not sure if or when binutils may have been upgraded).
