It works for me:

address@hidden tmp]$ gcc -c x.c
address@hidden tmp]$ readelf -S x.o
There are 14 section headers, starting at offset 0x2f0:

However, .parasections doesn't have any bits in flags. If I add

 asm (".section .parasections, \"ax\", @progbits");

I got

address@hidden tmp]$ gcc -c x.c
address@hidden tmp]$ objdump -d x.o
...
Disassembly of section .parasections:

0000000000000000 <.parasections>:
