The textual description might be unnecessary for a maint command but 
does not hurt either.  At least, the example output should match what 
GDB produces.

I'll add a "or if the executable does not require relocation".  But I 
could also remove the phrase discussing when relocated == unrelocated. 
This part of the manual documents the maint function, not relocations.
