 461 When inserting \fBELF\fR objects into an archive file, \fBar\fR might add
 462 "\fB\n\fR" characters to pad these objects to an 8-byte boundary. Such padding
 463 improves the efficiency with which \fBld\fR(1) can access the archive. Only
 464 \fBELF\fR object files are padded in this way. Other archive members are not
 465 altered. When an object with such padding is extracted from an archive, the
 466 padding is not included in the resulting output.
