+	help
+	  There are 3 ways BusyBox can handle buffer allocations:
+	  - Use malloc. This costs code size for the call to xmalloc.
+	  - Put them on stack. For some very small machines with limited stack
+	    space, this can be deadly. For most folks, this works just fine.
+	  - Put them in BSS. This works beautifully for computers with a real
+	    MMU (and OS support), but wastes runtime RAM for uCLinux. This
+	    behavior was the only one available for BusyBox versions 0.48 and
+	    earlier.
