Zero-initialized data not stored in .bss?

Hi,

I have read in the ABI document for the MSP430 that the .bss section is only uninitialized data while the .data section is only initialized data. Testing this out using MSPGCC I can verify that is it accurate. Is there a reason that zero-initialized variables are not part of the .bss on this architecture? 

Thanks,

Chris
