RE: i386-pc-nto-qnx6.3.0-strip-2.18 failed
When it comes to stripping binaries, there are a few things that you do
not, under any circumstances run strip on:
1) procnto
2) startup
3) the compilers (cc1, cc1plus)
Each of these has symbols that are required to be there, and if you run
strip on them the binaries cease to function correctly. I'm not saying
this to be glib. Rather, I've had experience where I've stripped a
compiler patch and then shipped it to a customer (without testing
first). Needless to say, the compiler did not work, and the customer was
not happy with me.
Strip is intended to be used on your own applications, and not what QNX
ships (most of what we ship is stripped anyways).
Cheers,
