- Beware : some unix systems DO NOT have this feature. I am sure it
- works in BSD and SunOS, but I have checked DG/UX on an Aviion
- (as an example), and it has no -A option to ld.

        And some systems use the -A flag for something completely
different.  An example is the ConvexOS loader, which uses -A for a
compiler only type of switch.  ConvexOS is nominally BSD, but the object
format is now a COFF like thing, as opposed the original BSD a.out
format.

        From my other experiences, System V (at least releases 2 and 3+)
don't support ld -A at all.
