-<sect1>Builtin configurations<p>
-
-The builtin configurations are part of the linker source. They can be retrieved
-with <tt/--dump-config/ and don't have a special format. So if you need a
-special configuration, it's a good idea to start with the builtin configuration
-for your system. In a first step, just replace <tt/-t target/ by <tt/-C
-configfile/. Then go on and modify the config file to suit your needs.

-
-
-<sect1>Secondary configurations<p>
-
-Several machine specific binary packages are distributed together with secondary
-configurations (in the cfg directory). These configurations can be used with
-<tt/-C configfile/ too.

<sect>Special segments<p>
The builtin config files do contain segments that have a special meaning for
