[Bug ada/15858] New: gnatelim still referenced in the GNAT user and reference manuals

[jc at apinc dot org]

gnatelim doesn't seem to be generated anymore in the lasts gcc versions.
However its documentation is still present in the documentation.
There are also small references to gnatelim in the comments of gnatcmd.adb, 
and gnatelim is still considered as a valid command in vms_conv.adb.

An easy replacement of gnatelim is made with the parameters -ffunction-sections 
and -fdata-sections during compilation, and -gc-sections during the linking 
stage. So it might be a replacement in the documentation.

I could do a patch myself, but you would probably be affraid by my english. 
Nevertheless if it's just deleting the gnatelim sections in the doc, I obviously 
can do it, if it helps.

Regards,
JC
