otherwise, libc.a and other objects which was not compiled with -xgot
won't link. (in general, you can't mix -xgot and no -xgot binaries.)
current GOT size is 0000f618 (see below).

symbols into locals, but relocs are left in place (rather than attempting
to resolve-in-place with "ld -r", even with "-Bsymbolic").
Standard MIPS code will generate CALL16 relocs for function calls, but
the linker forbids such relocs from being used to call local symbols (such
as those turned "local" by objcopy). So, rather than battle the toolchain
uphill, work around it for the moment by forcing 32-bit GOT references with
the assembler option "-xgot".
This will be fixed in a more clean manner in the future.
dependent files:
- Use infrastructure from distrib/common to build file system images with
crunchgen-ed programs from a list file.
- Non root ("UNPRIVED") builds from a read-only source tree are possible,
as makefs(8) replaces vnconfig(8)/vnd use, devices are generated using
common/makedev2spec.awk, etc.
- Cross builds should be possible, except that some ports need cross-compile
host tool versions of installboot and any appropriate host disk labelling
tools.
XXX: pmax, sparc and vax need fixing for this!
- This code has NOT YET BEEN TESTED on most of the ports.
It should work, but it is extremely likely that the file system
parameters may need tweaking to get things to fit.
See MAKEFS_FLAGS in sparc/miniroot/Makefile.inc for an example.
