By default, mtrans is invoked after the program is linked if Debug Level is Plain or MULTI and .dbg files are in use, or if Debug Level is MULTI and .dbg files are not in use.
Three command line options control the invocation of mtrans by the driver:
-nosym Prevents the invocation of mtrans after linking the program.
-nonosym Forces the invocation of mtrans after linking the program.
-sym Invokes mtrans on an executable that has already been linked.
Two additional command line options control whether the executable has its symbols stripped after mtrans is invoked. The executable is never stripped unless the Builder links the program and invokes mtrans:
-strip Forces the program to be stripped (by the gstrip utility) after mtrans is run.
-nostrip Prevents the program from being stripped after mtrans is run.
By default, the program will only be stripped with -G -nodbg.
