            Bug ID: 236205
           Summary: [CMake] REGRESSION(r288994): Linker does not get
                    passed --disable-new-dtags
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Local Build
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Tools / Tests
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: aperez at igalia.com

After switching from ld.gold to ld.bfd in r288994, the --disable-new-dtags
option is no longer passed to the linker. This can be an issue because without
it ELF headers will contain a DT_RUNPATH entry instead of a DT_RPATH one. The
issue is that DT_RUNPATH can be overriden by the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment
variable, which can easily result in running binaries straight from the build
directory accidentally using libraries from outside the build directory if
the variable is defined. With DT_RPATH libraries from the lib/ subdirectory
will be used, which is desirable during testing.
