On embedded PowerPC systems generate code that allows (does not allow)
the program to be relocated to a different address at runtime. If you
use @option{-mrelocatable} on any module, all objects linked together must
be compiled with @option{-mrelocatable} or @option{-mrelocatable-lib}.
Generate code that allows (does not allow) a static executable to be
relocated to a different address at runtime. A simple embedded
PowerPC system loader should relocate the entire contents of
@code{.got2} and 4-byte locations listed in the @code{.fixup} section,
a table of 32-bit addresses generated by this option. For this to
work, all objects linked together must be compiled with
@option{-mrelocatable} or @option{-mrelocatable-lib}.
@option{-mrelocatable} code aligns the stack to an 8 byte boundary.

On embedded PowerPC systems generate code that allows (does not allow)
the program to be relocated to a different address at runtime. Modules
compiled with @option{-mrelocatable-lib} can be linked with either modules
compiled without @option{-mrelocatable} and @option{-mrelocatable-lib} or
with modules compiled with the @option{-mrelocatable} options.
Like @option{-mrelocatable}, @option{-mrelocatable-lib} generates a
@code{.fixup} section to allow static executables to be relocated at
runtime, but @option{-mrelocatable-lib} does not use the smaller stack
alignment of @option{-mrelocatable}. Objects compiled with
@option{-mrelocatable-lib} may be linked with objects compiled with
any combination of the @option{-mrelocatable} options.
