            Bug ID: 19146
           Summary: ld -plugin "missing argument" vs. "unrecognized
                    option"
           Product: binutils
           Version: 2.26 (HEAD)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: ld
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: dilyan.palauzov at aegee dot org
  Target Milestone: ---

After doing "./configure --enable-lto --enable-plugins --enable-threads
--enable-gold=yes --with-zlib" and then "ld/ld-new --help" I see "  -plugin
PLUGIN              Load named plugin" , but when I enter "ld/ld-new -plugin"
the output is "ld/ld-new: unrecognized option '-plugin'".  This leads to the
impression, that plugin support is not compiled.  Gold reports on the same
occasion "-plugin: missing argument".

Please update ld, so that when it prints at "ld --help" the text "-plugin",
then "ld -plugin" emits "missing argument".
