Howevery, it seems that in the default Mac OS X's gcc configuration, / 
usr/bin/ld is used.

ls -al /usr/libexec/gcc/*/*/ld
lrwxr-xr-x   1 root  wheel  18 Oct 25 14:05 /usr/libexec/gcc/i686- 
apple-darwin8/4.0.1/ld -> ../../../../bin/ld
lrwxr-xr-x   1 root  wheel  18 Oct 25 14:06 /usr/libexec/gcc/powerpc- 
apple-darwin8/4.0.1/ld -> ../../../../bin/ld
