Hi Pawel, Hi H.J.

  The --only-keep-debug switch is not intended to work on object files (or
static libraries containing object files).  At least not those that contain
relocations that point into the debug sections (and which hence have incomplete
debugging information).

  This particular problem however appears to arise because strip thinks that the
group sections contain debugging information.  (The test for a debugging section
is basically one that contains information, but which is not allocated space in
the memory map at runtime).  The uploaded patch should resolve this.  Please
could you try it out and let me know if it works for you.

Cheers
  Nick
