So a quick scan of uses of ebl_debugscn_p, ebl_section_strip_p and
SECTION_STRIP_P:
- libdwfl/relocate.c (relocate_section)
Uses elf_rawdata () so won't be able to handle the section.
I assume that this is not a new problem, just something it
didn't handle before either?
What would need to happen in this case?
