Well, here are my 2-cents about that issue.  In general it is a flaw
to have an base-relocation in debug-section, as this means such debug
information can't be moved into a separate debug-file anymore.  A
debug-file has no relocation-information.
Nevertheless it would be good, if objcopy gets adjusted to eliminated
base-relocations of stripped sections.
