	// When linking a shared object, some conceptually "read only" types need to
	// be written to by relocations and putting them in a section called
	// ".rodata" interacts poorly with the system linkers. The GNU linkers
	// support this situation by arranging for sections of the name
	// ".data.rel.ro.XXX" to be mprotected read only by the dynamic linker after
	// relocations have applied, so when the Go linker is creating a shared
	// object it checks all objects of the above types and bumps any object that
	// has a relocation to it to the corresponding type below, which are then
	// written to sections with appropriate magic names.
