The version number should be documented in install.texi (and INSTALL
regenerated), with whatever caveats there may be about use of gold. But,
I've no idea what gold version numbers mean; I'd rather document and test
for the version of GNU binutils containing a known-good version of gold,
rather than for a separate gold version number.
