Allow 0-byte SECTIONs to be fixed anywhere They do not take any room, so they can only be used to define symbols at a given location. I ran into trouble with such a SECTION failing to be placed where specified, which doesn't make sense. This way, it also makes sense to have such a SECTION in the middle of another one, but that should be fine, since there's no actual overlap.
