A TEXTREL means that the text segment must be modified at run time,
which means 1) it starts up slower; 2) the text segment can not be
shared among multiple processes, so a "shared" library is no longer
actually shared.

Of course item 2 does not matter if you expect only one user to be
running the program anyhow.
