as well as @var{entsize} argument. Sections with @code{M} flag but not
@code{S} flag must contain fixed size constants, each @var{entsize} octets

strings where each character is @var{entsize} bytes long. The linker may remove
duplicates within sections with the same name, same entity size and same flags.
If no flags are specified, the default flags depend upon the section name. If
the section name is not recognized, the default will be for the section to have
none of the above flags: it will not be allocated in memory, nor writable, nor
