[Bug gold/6498] binaries linked with gold cannot be stripped

This is a known bug when using old versions of strip on x86_64.  It happens
because the default page size for gold for x86_64 is 0x1000.  The default page
size for old versions of the GNU binutils for x86_64 was 0x100000.  Using an old
version of strip on an executable with a page size smaller than the default
would fail.

I believe this bug was fixed in the GNU binutils on 2006-05-27 (i.e., long
before gold was released) with this patch:
http://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2006-05/msg00476.html

If you still see failures with a version of strip built after that date (i.e.,
binutils 2.18 or later), please reopen this bug.

Thanks for reporting it.
