This option tells @code{ld} to sort the common symbols by size when it
places them in the appropriate output sections. First come all the one
-byte symbols, then all the two bytes, then all the four bytes, and then
+byte symbols, then all the two byte, then all the four byte, and then
everything else. This is to prevent gaps between symbols due to
alignment constraints.
