I'm not sure what it is *supposed* to mean, but what causes it is
linking the startup code at a location other than the start of
the text segment.

The "-F (0413 demand page)" is from /etc/magic:

>>36	long	>0x80000	-F (0413 demand paged)

What particular significance there is to this and what the '-F' might
indicate I don't know.
