I'm afraid I don't agree. We use head because we only want to match against the first line of the output, and then we use '^' to match at the beginning of such line. Without using head we would end up matching at the beginning of any line present in the output. Thanks, Roger.

Detect GNU and LLVM ld implementations. This is required for further patches that will introduce diverging behaviour depending on the linker implementation in use. Note that LLVM ld returns "compatible with GNU linkers" as part of the version string, so be on the safe side and use '^' to only match at the start of the line in case LLVM ever decides to change the text to use "compatible with GNU ld" instead.
