[PATCH] scripts : ver_linux does not report recent binutils version

The 'ver_linux' script expects 'ld' to output a line starting with
'BFD', while recent versions of 'ld' print 'GNU ld'. The effect is
that binutils version is not listed in reports based on ver_linux.

The following trivial fix makes it do the right thing as 2.6 does.
Initially reported by Joshua Kwan. Tested and works.
