`.lcomm SYMBOL , LENGTH'
Reserve LENGTH (an absolute expression) bytes for a local common
denoted by SYMBOL. The section and value of SYMBOL are those of the
new local common. The addresses are allocated in the bss section, so
that at run-time the bytes start off zeroed. SYMBOL is not declared
global (*note `.global': Global.), so is normally not visible to `ld'.
Some targets permit a third argument to be used with `.lcomm'. This
argument specifies the desired alignment of the symbol in the bss
section.
The syntax for `.lcomm' differs slightly on the HPPA. The syntax is
`SYMBOL .lcomm, LENGTH'; SYMBOL is optional.
