+* The -Map=<filename> command line option has been extended so that if
+ <filename> is omitted then a file called <output-filename>.map will be
+ created. Plus if <filename> is a directory then
+ <filename>/<output-filename>.map will be created.
+
* Add a command-line option for ELF linker, --warn-textrel, to warn that
DT_TEXTREL is set in a position-independent executable or shared object.
@kindex -Map=@var{mapfile}
@item -Map=@var{mapfile}
Print a link map to the file @var{mapfile}. See the description of the
-@option{-M} option, above.
+@option{-M} option, above. Specifying the empty string as @var{mapfile}
+(that is, @code{-Map=}) causes the link map to be written to a file
+named after the @var{output} file, with @code{.map} appended.
+Specifying a directory as @var{mapfile} causes the link map to be
+written into a file inside the directory. The name of the file is
+again based upon the @var{output} filename with @code{.map} appended.
