encaps -h reports:
usage encaps: [-f format] [-n secname] [-t target] [-s secflags] output-file input-file symbol-name length-name
--format format file format to write.
--section_name name of the section (normally .data)
--target target target name (a.out-linux-i386 elf32-i386)
--sectionflags flags flags to put in section header
It seems that my encaps came from my slackware distribution of
binutils-2.6.0.14/binutils/encaps.c
I didn't find any documentation about the program,
so I hope someone else can report why it is still
mentioned in the Makefiles
