Hmm - well at the very least I think that you ought to add a comment
as well, explaining that it is relocs in the .eh_frame section that
are keeping the redundant symbols in the executables.  It would also
be good to add a FIXME note to the x86_64 sources somewhere saying
that this ought to be corrected some day.

Cheers
