        <pre>The relevant MSDN docs:

The grammar:
#pragma const_seg( [ [ { push | pop}, ] [ identifier, ] ] [ "segment-name" [,
"segment-class" ] )

This is important because it's used to register initializers and finalizers
similar to __attribute__((section(".init_array"))) in ELF.

David says that we'll have to extend LLVM IR to encode the section properties
such as readonly, executable, initialized, etc.</pre>
