       -fwritable-strings
              Store string constants in the writable data segment
              and don't uniquize them.  This is for compatibility
              with old programs which assume they can write  into
              string constants.  -traditional' also has this ef-
              fect.

              Writing into string constants is a very  bad  idea;
              `constants'' should be constant.
