to clarify/as a reminder;
- this limitation (n_sect 8 bits) is the reason that GNU_LTO sections are
kept separate and emitted at the end of the object file on Darwin.
- there are no symbols in these sections, so they will not be referred to in
the symtab - therefore, we should never overflow the section reference.
we need to investigate if something is broken in those assumptions - or whether
'as' is just telling us something we already knew.
