All packages are stock from freebsd.org

/usr/local/bin/ld was installed by package binutils-2.44,1

Just repeating what I said on IRC for anyone following along;

stand/i386/loader/Makefile was using 'cc' (I have
WITH_SYSTEM_COMPILER stet), the filemon data shows '/usr/bin/cc' ran
'/usr/bin/ld' but bsd.linker.mk was looking at ${LD} (ld) which was
found via $PATH as '/usr/local/bin/ld' (bfd).
