30 information which can be described in one form has nowhere to go in
31 another format. One example of this is alignment information in
33 alignment information on the contained data, so when a file is linked
35 information will not propagate to the output file. (The linker will
36 still use the alignment information internally, so the link is performed

114 information is not worth retaining; in @code{a.out}, type information is
115 stored in the symbol table as long symbol names. This information would
