I often have my makefiles call ld directly to build the final object. That way
I for sure have control, and do not have to worry about finagling the options
through gcc. Of course you have to get in all the hidden goodies that gcc/g++
will through in.

With g++, it might be more complicated to bypass it for the final link. Then,
you could do a partial pre-link directly using ld, to get say the F77 library
and most of the objects linked together statically, then pass the resultant .o
file to the final link via g++.
