Bug ID: 17832
Summary: strip --strip-unneeded removes needed symbol from
object file in archive
Product: binutils
Version: 2.17
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: binutils

archives in question
I'm working on a project targeting RHEL/CentOS 5.
On 32-bit systems with binutils 2.17, `strip --strip-unneeded` strips a
required symbol from a static archive, causing a subsequent linking to fail due
to an unresolved symbol.
On 64-bit systems with binutils 2.17, the same command does not cause any
problems.
I've attached the archives built for both architectures, both unstripped. The
symbol in question is `Threefish_256_Process_Block`, and should be defined in
the `threefish_block.o` member of the archive. After stripping, the 32-bit
version will have no symbols defined in that object file, but the 64-bit
version will keep it.
I did a local install of binutils 2.18, and using those there are no problems
on either architecture.
