You are obligated to spell the name of the section correctly...
$ cat t.s
.section __TEXT,__go_export
sym1: .long 1
.section __DATA,__go_export
sym2: .long 2
c-98-210-246-208:gcc mrs$ gcc t.s -c
c-98-210-246-208:gcc mrs$ nm -m t.o
0000000000000000 (__TEXT,__go_export) non-external sym1
0000000000000004 (__DATA,__go_export) non-external sym2
Now, if you want, I'll approve a change to prepend a __DATA, if there is no ,
already in the string. Bear in mind, there are only ~250 sections allowed, so,
go easy on the number you want to create. Also, bear in mind, there are
optional flags at the end that you might need to use, depending upon the
section contents.
