I have started a discussion on this topic on the gun-gabi mailing list.
(Unfortunately I do not seem to be able to find a URL to link to the
discussion).

At the moment the issue appears to be that just having two flag bits
is not enough to express all the situations when a section should, or
should not be stripped.  But there is only a very limited number of
bits available as section flags, so maybe another mechanism should be
used.
