<h2 class="appendix">Appendix F Using Stabs in Their Own Sections</h2>
<p>Many object file formats allow tools to create object files with custom

format, stabs can be embedded in special sections. This is how stabs
are used with ELF and SOM, and aside from ECOFF and XCOFF, is how stabs
are used with COFF.
