I can't upload the binary, but the uncompressed size (b6e3fb5 in the output
below) is correct.  This output is from a different, but similar, binary than
what was generating the original error message I posted:

$ readelf -t mybinary
  [Nr] Name
       Type              Address          Offset            Link
       Size              EntSize          Info              Align
       Flags
...
  [38] .debug_str
       PROGBITS         0000000000000000  0000000007259234  0
       0000000001a18720 0000000000000001  0                 1
       [0000000000000830]: MERGE, STRINGS, COMPRESSED
       ZLIB, 000000000b6e3fb5, 1

A 10x heuristic would have worked in this case, fwiw.
