Well, webkit-gtk (and www/chromium earlier, we have the same problem/fix
there) use base system's ld (that's because it's called by your compiler
of-the-day) but "some" ar (which is found by configure). AFAIK there's
no "real official" way to force use of one toolchain (instead of mix and
match).

Because sometimes we like to use the things we installed in LOCALBASE :)

Christoph
