I think this commit log should contain a detailed explanation of why
wrapping the linker is necessary. Could you provide an example of a
package that absolutely needs the linker to be wrapped ? I'd like to do
a bit of testing, because I'm still not entirely convinced that we want
to wrap the linker. Perhaps we need to do this, but I'd like to spend a
bit of time looking at a specific example of a package that makes this
necessary. Could you provide such an example ?
Thanks a lot!
Thomas
