P.S. This is by no means intended to belittle the work of the people
who've created MachO in its current form. Given what you started with
(an object format with *16*(!!!!!) possible relocations, for example)
you've done miracles. But the end result is not optimal, and probably
a guide for the rest of us on what to avoid.
