Yay - more exposure for the binutils.

I would argue that 'strip' is also a very important tool and from a developer's point of view I might add objdump and readelf as well.

Not sure if it is worth mentioning, but "all targets" really is a lot of different targets, including a whole variety of sometimes archaic architectures and file formats.
