The migration to the LLVM project's lld linker as the system linker (/usr/bin/ld) for FreeBSD is in progress - it is the case for arm64 and amd64 today, and i386 will switch once ports issues are addressed - see exp-run in PR214864. Attempting to link php produces many errors of the form: /usr/bin/ld: error: can't create dynamic relocation R_386_32 against symbol: php_date_global_timezone_db in readonly segment; recompile object files with -fPIC >>> defined in ext/date/.libs/php_date.o >>> referenced by php_date.c >>> ext/date/.libs/php_date.o:(zif_strtotime) http://package18.nyi.freebsd.org/data/headi386PR214864-default/2018-07-30_18h09m59s/logs/errors/php56-5.6.37.log This applies to lang/php56, lang/php70, lang/php71, lang/php72

For i386 we can just add -znotext unconditionally: for GNU BFD ld it just affirms BFD's existing default.
