Hello,

For an embedded mmu-less m68k target, I would like to generate code
that will always run at a fixed place in memory, thus not needing to be PIC,
but that would access a data+bss segment that could be anywhere in memory,
thus needing accesses to the data segment via %a5 and an offset table.

1.  Does that possibility already exist in gcc (I did not find it) ?
        -msep-data currently does PI-text + PI-data.
2.  If it does not exist, I plan to integrate it.
        - From which release or branch should I start ?
          I'd like to work on something that is stable except for my changes.
        - How is it currently possible in the gcc internals to know if a
          SYMBOL_REF points to the .text or .rodata segments ?

Philippe
