You mean, TO_ADDR. I understand your point and thought about
converting all the sizes to address units, but decided not to because
other places report octet sizes. eg. rawsize in print_input_section,
and print_data_statement, print_reloc_statement,
print_padding_statement. It seems likely that those functions bump
print_vma by the wrong amount too.
Hmm, I missed seeing that we have MEMORY region length in bytes, and
I'm not sure what the units are for symbol size in lang_one_common.
