Unless your program depends on linker scripts, you can expect it to be linkable with LLD. ...". I noticed that people are sharing this link when talk about LLD. It may lead to little misunderstanding, since I think linkerscripts are not a problem anymore. Also probably wording "in progress" may be changed so something more close to "mostly complete" ? George

The document is outdated and needs updating. That's my negligence. I'm planning to update/rewrite that.
