S records without NULL's


I wrote my first assembly file for the Coldfire board (gnu as 2.8).  I
used objcopy to convert to s19 file, but it is over 170K!

  -rw-rw-r--  1 tom        174898 May  5 22:05 prg.s19
  -rw-rw-r--  1 tom           736 May  5 21:57 prg.lst
  -rw-rw-r--  1 tom         66168 May  5 21:57 prg.o
  -rw-rw-r--  1 tom           217 May  5 21:57 pgm4-5.asm


I look in the file, and it is about 170K nulls.  I assume it is
filling the begining of my program with nulls.

My question is, how do I prevent this?
