GNU libtool checks the output from invoking the linker with --version
and --help, in order to determine the linker "flavour" and the command-
ine arguments to use for various link operations (e.g. generating shared
libraries). To detect GNU ld it looks for the strings "GNU" and
"supported targets:.*elf". Since LLD is compatible with GNU ld we
include those same strings to fool libtool.
Quoting from a comment in the change:
This is somewhat ugly hack, but in reality, we had no choice other
than doing this. Considering the very long release cycle of Libtool,
it is not easy to improve it to recognize LLD as a GNU compatible
linker in a timely manner. Even if we can make it, there are still a
lot of "configure" scripts out there that are generated by old
version of Libtool. We cannot convince every software developer to
migrate to the latest version and re-generate scripts. So we have
this hack.

For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information).
The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree. See build(7) and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html for more information, including setting make(1) variables.
The buildkernel and installkernel targets build and install
the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of
the Makefile in this directory for more information on the
standard build targets and compile-time flags.
Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process. See build(7), config(8), and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html for more information.
Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the
buildkernel and installkernel targets, you might need to build
world before. More information is available in the handbook.
The kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf
sub-directory. GENERIC is the default configuration used in release builds.
