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. :-)

I think you are adding too much complexity to the build process. it may be time to step back a bit and think about all this.
