That's what a 8byte_literals section becomes (i.e., 8-byte-sized
constants)
__TEXT,__text -- Executable machine code
__TEXT,__textcoal_nt -- ???
code sections with symbols which can be coalesced (i.e., if a symbol
in this section occurs in more than one section, fold it together with
another instance rather than giving a "duplicate symbol error"). "nt"
is probably an abbreviation for "no toc". See http://developer.apple.com/documentation/DeveloperTools/Reference/Assembler/ASMDirectives/chapter_5_section_2.html
(under "no_toc" for more information)
absolute -- absolute addresses - start up code?
common -- ???
Don't know.
