-fzero-initialized-in-bss again

[Richard Kenner]

    Let me rephrase: if the only purpose of this line is to mimic what the
    C compiler does with common variables and the Ada compiler doesn't
    need common variables, let's delete the line.

    So the question that would be good to answer is: does the Ada compiler
    need common variables?

I have non clue what a "common variable" might mean.

What we are discussing is what object file section each variable
should go into.  And what I'm saying is that this shouldn't depend on
whether a variable was written in C or Ada: it should only be a function
of language-independent attributes.
