* hack to work around strange darwin/ppc64 linker bug: it seems to

    have problems if you put a global symbol at the end of a section
    without any data following (at least in case of the resource strings
    section) -> add dummy byte at the end for darwin/ppc64 (otherwise
    it messes up the address of the first symbol stub entry)
