The Linux manual page says this:

   "The default dynamic linker is normally correct; don't use this
   unless you know what you are doing."

Perhaps the person who requested --dynamic-linker met the above 
qualification, or perhaps she just felt like using it.

I see that the Linux linker also supports the -I option for the same 
purpose so it seems that -I is more portable.
