Description Mark Seaborn 2008-12-07 20:44:23 UTC 
strip segfaults on a static x86-64 executable produced by compiling and linking
against dietlibc on Ubuntu intrepid.  The details of how I produced the
executable are here:
<https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dietlibc/+bug/254790>.  The
executable is linked with -Wl,-z,relro.

I couldn't find a test case that reproduces this without linking against
dietlibc, so I will attach the executable.  The executable contains a RELRO
segment which I suspect is not correct.  However, ideally strip should not segfault.

Probably a duplicate of Bug 7011.

It works for me on trunk as of 20081210.
