Above change fixes the issue. No warnings observed. Thank you!!

Take care, this must be a special version of binutils.

With regular 2.36.1 I get following error:

$ /opt/gcc/gcc-8.5.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux-ld --version

Nice catch. Thanks Christophe.

May be we need to handle this special/specific case with an
additional check
