Assembler document has
For ELF targets, the assembler supports another type of `.section'
directive for compatibility with the Solaris assembler:
.section "NAME"[, FLAGS...]
Note that the section name is quoted. There may be a sequence of
comma separated flags:
`#alloc'
section is allocatable
`#write'
section is writable
`#execinstr'
section is executable
`#tls'
section is used for thread local storage
But it doesn't work:
[...@gnu-6 gas]$ cat /tmp/x.s
.section ".start", #alloc, #execinstr
.byte 0,0,0,0
[...@gnu-6 gas]$ as -o x.o /tmp/x.s
/tmp/x.s: Assembler messages:
/tmp/x.s:1: Error: character following name is not '#'
[...@gnu-6 gas]$
