+# Unusual variables checked by this code:
+#	NOP - four byte opcode for no-op (defaults to 0)
+#	NO_SMALL_DATA - no .sbss/.sbss2/.sdata/.sdata2 sections if not
+#		empty.
+#	DATA_ADDR - if end-of-text-plus-one-page isn't right for data start
+#	INITIAL_READONLY_SECTIONS - at start of text segment
+#	OTHER_READONLY_SECTIONS - other than .text .init .rodata ...
+#		(e.g., .PARISC.milli)
+#	OTHER_TEXT_SECTIONS - these get put in .text when relocating
+#	OTHER_READWRITE_SECTIONS - other than .data .bss .ctors .sdata ...
+#		(e.g., .PARISC.global)
+#	OTHER_BSS_SECTIONS - other than .bss .sbss ...
+#	OTHER_SECTIONS - at the end
+#	EXECUTABLE_SYMBOLS - symbols that must be defined for an
+#		executable (e.g., _DYNAMIC_LINK)
+#	TEXT_START_SYMBOLS - symbols that appear at the start of the
+#		.text section.
+#	DATA_START_SYMBOLS - symbols that appear at the start of the
+#		.data section.
+#	OTHER_GOT_SYMBOLS - symbols defined just before .got.
+#	OTHER_GOT_SECTIONS - sections just after .got.
+#	OTHER_SDATA_SECTIONS - sections just after .sdata.
+#	OTHER_BSS_SYMBOLS - symbols that appear at the start of the
+#		.bss section besides __bss_start.
+#	DATA_PLT - .plt should be in data segment, not text segment.
+#	BSS_PLT - .plt should be in bss segment
+#	TEXT_DYNAMIC - .dynamic in text segment, not data segment.
+#	EMBEDDED - whether this is for an embedded system. 
+#	SHLIB_TEXT_START_ADDR - if set, add to SIZEOF_HEADERS to set
+#		start address of shared library.
+#	INPUT_FILES - INPUT command of files to always include
+#	WRITABLE_RODATA - if set, the .rodata section should be writable
+#	INIT_START, INIT_END -  statements just before and just after
+# 	combination of .init sections.
+#	FINI_START, FINI_END - statements just before and just after
+# 	combination of .fini sections.
+#	STACK_ADDR - start of a .stack section.
+#	OTHER_END_SYMBOLS - symbols to place right at the end of the script.
+#
+# When adding sections, do note that the names of some sections are used
+# when specifying the start address of the next.
+#
+
+#  Many sections come in three flavours.  There is the 'real' section,
+#  like ".data".  Then there are the per-procedure or per-variable
+#  sections, generated by -ffunction-sections and -fdata-sections in GCC,
+#  and useful for --gc-sections, which for a variable "foo" might be
+#  ".data.foo".  Then there are the linkonce sections, for which the linker
+#  eliminates duplicates, which are named like ".gnu.linkonce.d.foo".
+#  The exact correspondences are:
+#
+#  Section	Linkonce section
+#  .text	.gnu.linkonce.t.foo
+#  .rodata	.gnu.linkonce.r.foo
+#  .data	.gnu.linkonce.d.foo
+#  .bss		.gnu.linkonce.b.foo
+#  .sdata	.gnu.linkonce.s.foo
+#  .sbss	.gnu.linkonce.sb.foo
+#  .sdata2	.gnu.linkonce.s2.foo
+#  .sbss2	.gnu.linkonce.sb2.foo
+#  .debug_info	.gnu.linkonce.wi.foo
+#  .tdata	.gnu.linkonce.td.foo
+#  .tbss	.gnu.linkonce.tb.foo
+#
+#  Each of these can also have corresponding .rel.* and .rela.* sections.
