Changes in version 2.10:
* Added SORT to the linker script language to permit sorting sections by file
name or section name.
* The -e option now accepts a number as well as a symbol name.
* Added garbage collection of unused sections, enabled by --gc-sections.
It does require a bit of backend support; currently implemented are
ppc-elf, mips-elf, and mn10300-elf. Others will ignore the option.
Changes in version 2.9:
* Added SQUAD to the linker script language.
* New option --no-warn-mismatch.
* The MEMORY command now parses the attributes to determine where sections that
are not placed in a specific memory region are placed.
Changes in version 2.8:
* Linker scripts may now contain shell wildcard characters for file and section
names.
* The linker now supports symbol versions in ELF.
* The NOCROSSREFS command was added to the linker script language.
