They implemented "no location 0" as default.  From COFF(5):

     When an a.out file is  loaded  into  memory  for  execution,
     three  logical  segments  are  set up: the text segment, the
     data segment (initialized data  followed  by  uninitialized,
     the  latter  actually  being  initialized to all 0's), and a
     stack.  The  text  segment  starts  at  location  0x1000  by
     default.
