As per summary, currently binutils-config uses the -xtype option that is GNU specific, throwing out an error when it's used on FreeBSD.

The attached patch replaces it with `find -L $path -type l`, that, as far as I can see, it's just the same behaviour. `find $path -xtype l` is basically used to find broken links, if I'm not mistaken, and the same does my command.

Thanks,
Diego

i started to use -L but iirc, older versions of `find` didnt support it

since we have newer findutils stable, that shouldnt be a problem
