| denoted by <var>symbol</var>. The section and value of <var>symbol</var> are |
| those of the new local common. The addresses are allocated in the bss |
| section, so that at run-time the bytes start off zeroed. <var>Symbol</var> |
| is not declared global (see <a href="Global.html#Global"><code>.global</code></a>), so is normally |
| not visible to <code>ld</code>. |
| |
| <p>Some targets permit a third argument to be used with <code>.lcomm</code>. This |
| argument specifies the desired alignment of the symbol in the bss section. |
| |
| <p>The syntax for <code>.lcomm</code> differs slightly on the HPPA. The syntax is |
| ‘<samp><var>symbol</var><span class="samp"> .lcomm, </span><var>length</var></samp>’; <var>symbol</var> is optional. |
