Comment(by howarth@…):

 From my conversations with the Apple linker developer, we can simply
 access the desired libLTO.dylib using the linker as a symlink in
 ${prefix}/bin while the llvm libLTO.dylib resides in $(prefix}/lib. There
 should be no need to use anything more than symlinks to /usr/bin/ld for
 this purpose. It also insures that we don't desynchronize the linker from
 the assembler which could cause subtle problems.
