"ld-is-gold just means that my default linker is gold, however we build
both linkers, so one should be able to enable gold just for linking

I strongly disagree with such interpretation - this would mean there's NO way 
to disable gold linker completely, e.g. for when external toolchain doesn't 
support it.
