RE: ld option to leave .reloc section on .exe?


Hi Chris

    I have an experience that add "--embedded-relocs" option 
    to ld. It will generate a .reloc section.

Like this 
$m68k-pic-coff-gcc -Xlinker --embedded-relocs test.c 

    My target is "m68k-pic-coff" maybe it's differemce from yours
    Hope it works.
