@end ifset
On some platforms, the @samp{--relax} option performs global
optimizations that become possible when the linker resolves addressing
in the program, such as relaxing address modes and synthesizing new
instructions in the output object file.
On some platforms these link time global optimizations may make symbolic
debugging of the resulting executable impossible. This is known to be
the case for the Matsushita MN10200 and MN10300 family of processors.
@ifset GENERIC
On platforms where this is not supported, @samp{--relax} is accepted,
but ignored.
