Greetings - using illumos "strip" mangles Golang compiles binaries so they no longer run. Current Solaris 11.4 strip is OK, as is GNU strip.

jhj: Thanks for the report. Is this tied to a particular golang version?

there is an issue for it #15091 (fenix)

BUG 15091: strip(1) rips go binaries apart (New)

↳ illumos.org/issues/15091

Oh, thanks hadfl.

That seems not great. We should probably take a fresh look at figuring out what would be needed to fix that.

I don't remember the details, but it seemed like a moving target last I looked at it

unfortunately, the implementation of strip(1) and mcs(1) is not enjoyable, either.

I think actually the last time I looked, the things that caused strip(1) to wreak havoc were pointed outt by `elfdump foo > /dev/null`

in general, if elfdump doesn't like you, fix that first.
