Are you sure the buildtarget change is right? It seems to be doing
just the opposite of what we want, adding --build-id=none only if
build-id is _not_ found in ld --help.

Also it would be very helpful if you could submit patches in a form
that patch or quilt can grok; they both choked on the one you sent.
