	gcc -Wl,-M

writes a map file to stdout. 

	gcc -Wl,-Map,myprog.map

writes it to "myprog.map"

The answer is a bit hard to find since it requires understanding two
programs: the linker itself ("info ld Invocation Options" or "info
ld", then type "imap<RETURN>"), and gcc (passing options directly to
the linker, "info gcc invo link").

Or use 'objdump' or 'nm' on the executable, any time you want.
