<dd><p>Replace identified out-of-range branches with PC-relative <code>jmp</code>
sequences when possible. The generated code sequences are suitable
for use in position-independent code, but there is a practical limit
on the extended branch range because of the length of the sequences.
This option is the default.

and all call instructions with <code>jmp</code> and <code>callr</code> sequences
(respectively). This option generates absolute relocations against the
target symbols and is not appropriate for position-independent code.
