Why does the namelist include the names of the .o files making
up the object? For example, nm an unstripped program and you'll
see entries such as:
00000d88 t ioctl.o
00000d64 t isatty.o
00000d98 t malloc.o
00000068 t printf.o
000010a0 t sbrk.o
00000000 T start
00000054 t test.o
000010d0 t write.o
Are these just to record which files made up the object? Do any
programs depend upon this information?
Thanks,
