Summary:
Every segment belongs to a named class such as 'CODE', 'DATA', or
'BSS'. LINK orders all segments with the same class name contiguously.
Within each class, segments are placed in the same order as LINK
encounters them. Segment classes are placed in the order they appear.
If you do not give a class name when you define a segment in assembly,
the segment gets the null class, which is treated like any other
segment. If the /DOSSEG option is given, or one of the Microsoft
language run-time libraries is used, LINK imposes the following
additional order:
code - class ending in 'CODE')
far data - everything but DGROUP and 'CODE')
DGROUP - the default data segment
class 'BEGDATA' (special runtime segment)
near initialized data (everything but 'BSS' and 'STACK')
near BSS--uninitialized data (class 'BSS')
stack
