23 * For every sub-segment the user mentions in the ASsembler program,
24 * we make one struct frchain. Each sub-segment has exactly one struct frchain
27 * Struct frchain's are forward chained (in ascending order of sub-segment
28 * code number). The chain runs through frch_next of each subsegment.
29 * This makes it hard to find a subsegment's frags
30 * if programmer uses a lot of them. Most programs only use text0 and
31 * data0, so they don't suffer. At least this way:
32 * (1) There are no "arbitrary" restrictions on how many subsegments
34 * (2) Subsegments' frchain-s are (later) chained together in the order in
35 * which they are emitted for object file viz text then data.
37 * From each struct frchain dangles a chain of struct frags. The frags
38 * represent code fragments, for that sub-segment, forward chained.
