Steps:
Use strip or objcopy on a PE file with a PE target.
Optionally pass --file-alignment 0x1000 to objcopy
Result:
The resulting PE file has a correct file alignment value in the optional
header, but the sections still have alignments in the file smaller than required
(0x200)
Expected:
The sections must be aligned to the file alignment value in the PE file.
Addition:
Passing --section-alignment and --file-alignment values to objcopy sometimes
leads to completely messed up alignment. I couldn't manage to get the sections
aligned identical in VA and in the file.
