  The man page for ld, as for the other binutils, is quite generic, and lists
all the options supported on all the systems that binutils can be targeted
against.

  Nope.  It only makes sense on platforms that use the ELF executable file
format.  Windows uses PE-COFF and Cygwin goes with that.

  For your purposes, just hack it out of the Makefile, hopefully everything
will work fine without it.
