Subject: 2008/006: make ld(1) -z combreloc become default behavior
...
ld(1) should make -z combreloc the default behavior when creating a
final object (ie., an executable or shared object). The -z combreloc
option will still be recognized, but effectively ignored. A new
-z nocombreloc option will be added to disable the relocation section
concatenation.
Under what circumstances might one wish to use the old behavior? What
is the compatibility impact of switching this default?
