(In reply to Martin Li������ka from comment #15) > So it's purely a perf-issue. I'm going to close this upstream issue. it might be that we need to keep the debug section in the main file as well (with NOBITS) to make the 1:1 section mapping work as documented for sections that come after the debug sections in the main object (default linker scripts might make the debug always "last" and the string/symtab sections are generally unrefered to). But yes, I think perf needs to be more careful first.
