Words I never thought I'd say: GNU gold is good enough to be the sole linker in a complete powerpc-unknown-openbsd6.5 bootstrap build of gcc-10.0.0. The resulting gcc works perfectly. This gcc uses gold as its linker and everything it links works too.

@brian I haven't had that much luck with gold. I still use bfd for Firefox. were you able to build it that way? (note that I'm "still" on gcc 9.1 on this Fedora 30 Talos II.)

@doctorlinguist No PowerPC Rust on OpenBSD :(

So gcc/g++ was the best test I had. Trying my luck building WebKitGTK+ with the new gcc/gold combo. Will let you know how that goes.

@doctorlinguist gcc-10.0.0 was built --with-as=<gas-2.32.51> --with-ld=<gold-1.16 with the new PowerPC patches from binutils HEAD>

@brian ah, yes. :( I'm not happy with Rust-the-compiler (I'm sure the language is fine, but I don't like how rustc is currently bootstrapped).
