E.g. in cc1 the .comment section is just GCC: (GNU) 8.0.1 20180411 (experimental) [trunk revision 259325] as: Studio 12.6 Compiler Common 12.6 SunOS_i386 st_017 03/03/2018 GCC: (GNU) 4.9.0 GCC: (GNU) 7.1.0 ld: Software Generation Utilities - Solaris Link Editors: 5.11-1.3143 so the space cost is acceptable.
