+	  kvmtool is a lightweight tool for hosting KVM guests.
+	  As a pure virtualization tool it only supports guests using
+	  the same architecture, though it supports running 32-bit guests
+	  on those 64-bit architectures that allow this.

+# This is required to convert a static binary (init helper) back into

+# the default is i386, hence when building for x86_64 things break since
+# LD doesn't autodetect the input file format.
+# GCC-as-linker can't accomplish this feat easily either since it's mixing
+# static content (guest_init.o) with dynamic one (lkvm) making
+# a relocatable output file.
+# The purpose of this trick is to embed the init helper into the main
+# binary to help users in guest system startup, which would otherwise
+# require more complex guest images.
+# This needs revisiting if/when X32 ABI support is added.
+#
+# If more packages need this (unlikely) an ld wrapper might be a better
+# solution, using gcc -dumpspecs information.
