I did and I came up with a better solution.  I added an option called 
BUILDID_OPTION to the process.  This is a string that is set to the 
"-Wl,--build-id=none"  for newer ld versions and can be set to blank for 
older ld versions.  I have attached the patch file to add this to V2.  I 
think this should take care of any backwards compatibility. :-)
