+/* Return 1 if SECTION should be inserted into the section map. + We want to insert only non-overlay and non-TLS section. */
Can you explain what we do not want to add TLS sections? Is that just an optimization (code addresses should never point to TLS)?
+/* Filter out overlapping sections, issuing a warning if any are found.
+ Overlapping sections could really be overlay sections which we didn't
+ classify as such in insert_section_p, or we could be dealing with a
+ corrupt binary. */
I think we should also mention the MacOS port where we load all sections
of all .o files instead of just the debugging info. It looks like a
design flaw in the MacOS port, but it was really a shortcut in getting
things to work (aka a hack).
