+//===-- PluginLoader.cpp - Implement -load command line option ------------===//
+//
+// This file implements the -load <plugin> command line option processor.  When
+// linked into a program, this new command line option is available that allows
+// users to load shared objects into the running program.
+//
+// Note that there are no symbols exported by the .o file generated for this
+// .cpp file.  Because of this, a program must link against support.o instead of
+// support.a: otherwise this translation unit will not be included.
+//
