Sorry to ask because usally I don't really understand everything in this
mailing list but
does it affect some PE platform like arm-*-pe ?
Will I see a new section .eh_frame in new binaries ?
Will I be able to remove it by stripping because on wince PE loader is
strict and doesn't like new sections.
