Comment (by ohho):

 Replying to [comment:4 bgamari]:
 > Hmm, this is quite odd; I have no such problem while compiling `lens`
 with `-fuse-ld=gold` on FreeBSD 11.0 (amd64) (although with gcc 4.8.5)

 This is probably because gcc48 didn't invoke ld.gold as the linker.

 Notice that line `--with-ld=...` above, if you installed gcc48 from ports,
 \\
 then it's configured with `--with-ld=/usr/local/bin/ld`.
