            Bug ID: 230209
           Summary: lang/ocaml: fail to link with lld as /usr/bin/ld on
                    i386

The migration to the LLVM project's lld linker as the system linker
(/usr/bin/ld) for FreeBSD is in progress - it is the case for arm64 and amd64
today, and i386 will switch once ports issues are addressed - see exp-run in
PR214864.

Linking lang/ocaml with lld as /usr/bin/ld on i386 produces errors of the form:
/usr/bin/ld: error: can't create dynamic relocation R_386_32 against symbol:
caml_last_return_address in readonly segment; recompile object files with -fPIC
>>> defined in roots.pic.o
>>> referenced by i386.pic.o:(.text+0x4)
