The linker is separate from gcc. On Linux the linker (and assembler)
are provided by the GNU binutils package. On other Unix-like systems
the linker is typically provided by the OS vendor and may have a
completely different command line and feature set than the GNU linker.

I'd be surprised if the SSA stuff involved the linker.

Strangely, MinGW's online copy of the gcc documentation does list it
as an option. It's been considered "experimental" for a long time, so
perhaps they disabled it in their build?
