The opposite of -N is -n, not +n. The +n option tells the linker to
search archive libraries iteratively, which I believe is needed for the
Linux kernel.
The -N option tells the linker to build a "non-shareable" executable, so
it puts text and data together in one segment. The -n option is the
default, where shareable text is placed in the first quadrant and data is
placed in the second quadrant.
