Optimization levels for linking with gcc

Hi,

some time ago I've reported that gcc supports some optimizations for 
linking (not just compiling). It turns out this is documented. This is 
the relevant excerpt from 'man ld':

-O level
If level is a numeric values greater than zero ld 
optimizes the output. This might take significantly longer and 
therefore probably should only be
enabled for the final binary.

Can we add some -OX to the linking stage for the release variant?
