output of `cave info`

        LDFLAGS=-Wl,-O1 -Wl,--sort-common -Wl,--as-needed -Wl,--gc-sections -Wl,--hash-style=gnu -Wl,--enable-new-dtags -Wl,--default-symver

Where did that come from?

I've told you, "-Wl,--default-symver" came from the ebuild! in case of userland_GNU... and that is invalid for ld.gold!
