 Then, possibly, these sections could be avoided when generating binaries 
for Linux.  I am not sure how this option be presented to user, though.  A 
lone switch to ld, etc. is obviously insufficient; it should have to be
settable via an ld script, too.  But then, what about other tools that
depend on BFD (objcopy, for example)?
