Hi Thomas,

: thanks for the tips.

You're welcome.

: Here's a new and improved (and simpler) patch...

: 2000-05-22  Thomas de Lellis  <tdel@windriver.com>
: 
:         * ld.1: added documentation for new command line option
:         --section-start sectionname=sectionorg
:         This is a generic version of -Ttext etc. which accepts
:         any section name as a parameter instead of just
:         text/data/bss.
:         * ld.texinfo: more docs.
:         * ldlexsup: (parse_args): recognize new command line option.

Approved.  I have added one tiny refinement, just to be paranoid -
and that is the restoration of the '=' character in the command string
after the parsing is over.

Cheers
	Nick
