Hi Andreas,

If it is needed then it can be part of ROM.  It contains relocation
information which is used to modify the .dyn section.  The .dyn section
however should be in RAM.


The .dyn section does not exist.  The .rela.dyn section is a special
relocation section that is only created when using -z combreloc (which is
the default) to contain the combined relocation sections.

Oops - sorry, my bad.

Cheers
  Nick
