Ian addressed your concern, so I'll skip it. BTW, if I'm going to enable 
long section names, I'll let djgpp-workers know beforehand. I don't the 
change, if it even happens, should affect the debuggers since the bytes 
in the sections with long section names will be put into the .text and 
.data sections by the linker script anyway (once modifed of course).
