The other documentation I have on this is relatively moot. cDoPortability extends to the class of machines that have 4.3ish headers but can't, for one reason or another, use gnu ld. There's lots of #ifdefs in collect.c for this case. Thus, a single common tool handles the problems with out modification of the cc1plus itself.
