@appendix Table B: Symbol types from assembler and linker
Table B shows the types of symbol table entries that hold assembler
and linker symbols.
The #define names for these n_types values are defined in
/include/aout/aout64.h
and linker symbols. Since this document does not attempt to describe
aspects of object file format other than the debugging format, no
details are given.
