Ideal behaviour would be to make ld smarter about debuginfo but I don't know if that is doable, so this should do. >> Otherwise we need to fix the linker to not include debug symbols first. > > Is this really necessary? It's not the way ld currently works. It is necessary because the idea of unexpectedly finding debuginfo in their binaries when one did not ask for it is counter-intuitive. > I think specifying -s if you want a binary without debugging information > is an acceptable workaround. It may be, but the default would be counter-intuitive.
