[PATCH] stripper: Strip all unneeded relocation information

[PATCH] stripper: Strip all unneeded relocation information

[Michael Tremer]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1299 bytes --]

Libraries were treated differently and therfore it could
happen that they were not stripped from any unnecessary
relocation information at all.

This patch changes that and strips everything from
libraries that we do not need.

The ISO was 3MB smaller.
