Rebased : [Patch mach-o 3/3] section directives needed to support GCC
minor tweaks here to deal with the changes to part 2.

I think this matter (not emitting .data and .bss) is really a detail.
Yes, it is .. and I'm happy to leave until it shows as a bug
.. or just to apply and be the same as the system tools.
AFAIK, ld is happy if the sections are empty.
OK. I wasn't sure - don't have complete coverage of ld variants here.
Anyway, as Alan has approved your changes, I am ok with them.
... here is the rebased patch anyway ...
cheers
