Hi Neddy,

I have ld.gold enabled by default and want to temporarily disable it to manually compile the kernel.

Do I have to switch back to ld.bdf and enable ld.gold in the CFLAGS?

CFLAGS="-fuse-ld=bfd" LD="ld.bfd" make
but the environment variables are not well taken into account

LD is often not honoured, because the compiler is directly used for linking. You should put -fuse-ld=bfd also to LDFLAGS (and perhaps also to CXXFLAGS, FFLAGS, ...).

CFLAGS is not enough, but if I define CC and LDFLAGS, it works:
Code:
make CC="gcc -fuse-ld=bfd -Wl,-fuse-ld=bfd" LDFLAGS="-fuse-ld=bfd" -j5 -l2 all modules

Other options with CFLAGS or LD don't work.

CC="gcc oh_let_s_do_dirty_hack_here"

But hey, if it works :D

edit:
If i remember well, kernel kick out any cflags or settings you set and put its own fixed settings that depends on cpu type set in the kernel.
If i also remember well, i think i saw a patch for kernel (from patches provide in gentoo-sources url) that enable more cpu, cflags...
You might use that patch for your kernel to allow specific cflags or optimization, but really, if the hack works, well, it's easy and do the job with no bad issue.
edit: here it is https://dev.gentoo.org/~mpagano/genpatches/trunk/4.0/5000_enable-additional-cpu-optimizations-for-gcc.patch
