Hi,

I thougt this could be a bug for the strip tool:

Platform:

SunOS btm0gn 5.8 Generic_108528-15 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-5_10

GNU binutils version 2.13 - strip:
btm0gn:/cmx_tools2/3EZ00325_Binutils_Sol_2.8/bin> strip -V

If you're interested I can ftp the zipped .elf file to a ftp server of yours.
