* When an ELF section named .gnu.warning.SYMBOL is encountered in an input
file, and the symbol SYMBOL is referenced by some object file, the contents of
the section are displayed as an error message. The section is not copied into
the output file, unless doing a relocateable or shared link. This is used by
glibc.
* New options -split-by-reloc and -split-by-file.
* The linker now supports linking PIC compiled code on SPARC SunOS. It still
can not create SunOS shared libraries.
* The linker now supports linking PIC compiled code on SPARC SunOS. It can
also create SPARC SunOS shared libraries. The native SunOS linker will do this
when linking code which has an undefined symbol, but the GNU linker requires
the -shared option. For convenience when used with gcc -shared, the GNU linker
will also create a shared library when given the -assert pure-text option,
although this is not really what -assert pure-text should mean.
* The COFF linker now combines debugging information for structs, unions, and
enums, so that even if the same type is defined in multiple input files it will
