will remove all sections matching the pattern '.text.*', but will not
remove the section '.text.foo'.
+@item --remove-relocations=@var{sectionpattern}
+Remove relocations from the output file for any section matching
+@var{sectionpattern}. This option may be given more than once. Note
+that using this option inappropriately may make the output file
+unusable. Wildcard characters are accepted in @var{sectionpattern}.
+For example:
+
+@smallexample
+ --remove-relocations=.text.*
+@end smallexample
+
+will remove the relocations for all sections matching the patter
+'.text.*'.
+
+If the first character of @var{sectionpattern} is the exclamation
+point (!) then matching sections will not have their relocation
+removed even if an earlier use of @option{--remove-relocations} on the
+same command line would otherwise cause the relocations to be removed.
+For example:
+
+@smallexample
+ --remove-relocations=.text.* --remove-relocations=!.text.foo
+@end smallexample
+
+will remove all relocations for sections matching the pattern
+'.text.*', but will not remove relocations for the section
