collect2 calls the wring linker (avr-ld).

It calls avr-ld from $PATH instead of the linker as installed in the toolchain

--prefix is not in $PATH but binutils are configured with the same --prefix and
installed before GCC way configured.

I'd expect that a toolchain installation is self-contained and that if there is
a complete toolchain the tools can be called by their absolute paths?

Similarly, collect2 in $BUILD calls avr-ld it finds in $PATH instead of the
avr-ld installed at --prefix.

Is this a bug or a feature?


From your description, that is a bug.  If you configure with the same
--prefix and --target, and you run both "make" and "make install", then
gcc should use the installed ld.  It shouldn't run "avr-ld".  It should
run "ld" from the special $(exec_prefix)/$(target_alias) directory.
That directory exists to hold tools that the compiler needs to run,
under canonical names.

I added the INSTALL/bin directory to PATH with

export PATH=INSTALL/bin:$PATH

but after deleting the build directory, configuring and making again, it still does not work and test cases with -flto are failing.

...giving up. I wasted almost a week now and will switch back to --disable-lto so that I can proceed with my work.
