/* This is a BFD backend which may be used to read or write binary
23
   objects.  Historically, it was used as an output format for objcopy
24
   in order to generate raw binary data, but is now used for other
25
   purposes as well.
26
27
   This is very simple.  The only complication is that the real data
28
   will start at some address X, and in some cases we will not want to
29
   include X zeroes just to get to that point.  Since the start
30
   address is not meaningful for this object file format, we use it
31
   instead to indicate the number of zeroes to skip at the start of
32
   the file.  objcopy cooperates by specially setting the start
33
   address to zero by default.  */
