title: How to install gnu ld on mac os x 10.6?
body: <p>I'm having a lot of trouble compiling the otherwise excellent <a href="http://www.sics.se/contiki/" rel="noreferrer">Contiki OS</a> on my macbook pro (with mac os x 10.6). Contiki actually uses a lot of GNU-specific features and options of GCC, AR, LD, and so on. So I installed those utilities via macports, but it looks like "port install binutils" does not install GNU ld, does it ?</p>
  
  <p>So, the question is, how do I get GNU ld on my mac ? Is there a simple alternative to the hard-way (i.e. the <code>wget, configure, make, make install</code> way) ?</p>
