Subject: get rid of eh_frame bloat
X-Git-Url: http://nsz.repo.hu/git/?p=musl;a=commitdiff_plain;h=b439c051c7eee4eb4b93fc382f993aa6305ce530

get rid of eh_frame bloat

if needed for debugging, it will be output in the .debug_frame section
instead, where it is not part of the loaded program and where the
strip command is free to strip it.
