Yes, I think this should be fixed. It only works with bfd ld without
static pie (which we're also missing support for) because it just
ignores -dynamic-linker in the ET_EXEC case.
Would you be willing to propose a candidate patch? I believe this has
been raised before in the context of static pie not working with
musl-gcc (it didn't exist when the wrapper was added) so ideally that
will get fixed too.
