Nothing at the moment.  Unless someone can verify that executables with
the VER_FLG_INFO flag set continue to work ld-linux.so.2, I'm very
reluctant to add code to either gld or gold to set that flag, perhaps
unless targetting Solaris 2.  And apart from an early experiment to see
if gold even compiles on non-Linux platforms, I've never tried to use
gold on Solaris 2 yet.

Will do, thanks.
