+Relocate the first segment of the object file, which conventionally
+contains program code, to a starting address of @var{xxx}. If
+@samp{DataSeg} is specified, relocate the second segment, which
+conventionally contains modifiable data, to a starting address of
+@var{yyy}. @value{GDBN} will report an error if the object file
+does not contain segment information, or does not contain at least
+as many segments as mentioned in the reply. Extra segments are
+kept at fixed offsets relative to the last relocated segment.
