We are not trying to emulate a flag that exists in another implementation but 
we are trying to address migration from another implementation where source 
annotation is not necessary for the intended use case because of a confluence 
of factors. Among them: the front-end did not suppress emission of unused 
internal linkage variables into the IR and such variables were unconditionally 
grouped with string data, etc. into a single section (XCOFF csect) by the 
backend. As such, any reference into the section caused unused internal linkage 
variables to be kept.
