Sure. The LDPT_GOLD_VERSION tag, which lto-plugin currently ignores, will return the version of gold. I can bump that version when I commit this patch, and lto-plugin can check it. > I'm not sure if with your patch the add_input_library or > add_input_file plugin hooks are completely useless (and thus > gold could simply ignore those at all). The plugin does need to use the add_input_file callback. In any case I'm not sure it's a great idea for gold to ignore a hook, there might be some need for it in the future. Ian
