That's there because (actually, I think _you_ told me this when I asked during the ClangBuiltLinux summit) other tools scanned the LD version string for the binutils-specific bits. For this, since it's newly added to the kernel /proc/version, nothing is already expecting to find an LD string, and it looked super weird in there if I left it as-is. Hence, scrub! -Kees -- Kees Cook
