# The symbol foo is defined as a position in the file. This means that it is
# not absolute and it is possible to compute the distance from foo to some other
# position in the file. The symbol is not really in any output section, but
# ELF has no magic constant for not absolute, but not in any section.
# Fortunately the value of a symbol in a non relocatable file is a virtual
# address, so the section can be arbitrary.
