This is a serious bug in objcopy in the current binutils. Given that cygport creates the debug info automatically, we might end up with spuriously broken DLLs in the distro.

we already have some :


/usr/bin/cygcrypto-1.0.0.dll
  8 .gnu_deb      0000001c  67542000  67542000  0017ac00  2**2

/usr/bin/cyglsa.dll
  6 .gnu_deb      00000014  10007000  10007000  00001400  2**2

/usr/bin/cygssl-1.0.0.dll
  8 .gnu_deb      0000001c  58fcf000  58fcf000  00059a00  2**2


I checked with objcopy from the older binutils 2.51.53-2, and the problem did not show up. I also built the latest binutils release 2.23.1 and the problem also doesn't show, so we probably can get away with just a black eye by updating binutils to 2.23.1. Chris?
