+Generate (do not generate) explicit symbol relocations instead of
+assembler macros.  Using explicit relocations can improve code generation.
+GCC detects the capaiblities of the assembler when it is built and sets
+the default to @code{-mexplicit-relocs} if the assembler supports the
+syntax for explicit specification of relocations, and
+@code{-mno-explicit-relocs} otherwise.  This option is mostly useful for

Some text massaging, along with some shameful copying from other (read: RISC-V) -mexplicit-relocs docs...

"Use or do not use assembler relocation operators when dealing with symbolic addresses. The alternative is to use assembler macros instead, which may limit optimization.

The default value for the option is determined during GCC build-time by detecting corresponding assembler support: @code{-mexplicit-relocs} if said support is present, @code{-mno-explicit-relocs} otherwise. This option is mostly useful for debugging, or interoperation with assemblers different from the build-time one."

What do you think?
