Guardian subvolume. For the OSS version of nld, location is an OSS directory

nld searches for files specified with simple names in -l and -lib options in locations
specified in each -L and -libvol option, in the order specified to nld, before
searching any of the standard library locations. Each version of nld searches a
particular set of standard library locations. See Searching for Archives and SRLs With
Simple File Names on page 2-26 for details.
If you specify -nostdlib on page 3-9, nld does not search standard library locations.
nld does not verify the names of locations specified in -L options.
If you specify -verbose on page 3-16, nld writes to its output listing the locations
where it found an SRL or archive file. The Guardian version of nld has -verbose set
by default.
