Short summary:
- FreeBSD/OpenBSD ship with mutations of the behavior of ELF/GNU/Linux in 
certain nits, we do the same with our driver.
- MinGW ships with a frontend driver to COFF, we do the same with a driver to 
ELF/GNU/Linux.
- Darwin ships with default search paths, we do the same in our driver.
- NetBSD is not a GNU system, it is a BSD system that differs with 
ELF/GNU/Linux, GNU/Linux is at most an inspiration, none of our project goals 
is about reimplementing Linux. The same applies to MinGW, Darwin etc that do 
not reimplement Linux.

The proposed change does not make anything without prior art.

LLD is practically the last piece of the LLVM toolchain stack without NetBSD 
support. We run the NetBSD buildbot for LLD since 2018 and there are no plans 
to detach it.

We intend to integrate LLD into our distribution, but we first must make it 
work in the upstream version out of the box.
