+* Linker map files are now generated with an O(N) algorithm for finding symbols
+ that are defined in each section. This uses about 40% more memory for
+ symbols than the old O(N^2) algorithm. You can use the new
+ --reduce-memory-overheads option to select the old algorithm; this option
+ might also be used in the future to select similar tradeoffs.

* New PE --large-address-aware option to indicate executables support virtual
addresses greater than 2 gigabytes.
