  This is actually a very common method that is used by installers and
other self-extracting programs frequently (especially under Linux).  UPX
calls them "overlays", although i'm not sure this is a common term.  In
any case, this isn't a method that should be used by a compiler or other
generic tool, because a lot of overlay loading implementations read the
header file of the executable to figure out where the extra data are
located and if compilers place extra data there, there will be
conflicts.
