Most of the progress in lld is not in lld itself, but in the underlying 
frameworks.  The tool is expected to be a fairly thin wrapper.  The Object code 
in the main llvm repository is where the real work happens.

MCLinker is likely a dead end.  It was intended as a quick-and-dirty hack to 
get a working linker for a small subset of the problem, with no thought as to 
how to solve the general case.
