IIRC, on archictures using object file formats being able to store
data in sections not being loaded into memory upon execution, such
strings went into such a ".comment" section. This should be easily
doable with nowadays ELF, but instead of #sccs, something like
'#pragma ident "whatsover"' might be more appropriate.
