[sldev] Link errors

Thanks for your reply.
I edited the link command to change back slashes to forward slashes and the 
linker still complains about invalid options.
I would assume that there is a mismatch between the linker expected by the 
build and the linker that I have installed. My system shows 'link (GNU 
coreutils) 5.93' when I do link --version.
I went back and verified that I installed all the required packages and I 
don't see anything that I missed.
I also removed the two --options and the linker then complains about other 
things on the command line, reinforcing the suspicion that some other linker 
is expected.
