IDK howcome, but I don't seem to be having this problem on my machine,
but I did have it at a client's site with the same programs.   I 
hunted around some on the internet, and I may have found and installed
a better version of ld somewhere.  When I do 'ld -v' it says something
like 'ld 2.8.1 with BFD 2.8.1'.  You might look for something called
BFD .... I don't remember where I got it, maybe at the pentium compiler
group site or some other egcs site.  I might have just installed it
over djgpp on my DOS machine.

I agree that this would not be a nice problem to have as a permanent
feature of one's development environment.  Let's hope that there's a
good remedy out there soon.
