So here I am,

I figured out that https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=20922
is probably the upstream bug we are talking about.

The bug was fixed in upstream, commit
a55c9876bb111fd301b4762cf501de0040b8f9db, and indeed I was able
to compile that version under Centos7, and to get `strip` to work
fine.

So version 2.28 should do fine, I guess:

    $ git tag --contains a55c9876bb111fd301b4762cf501de0040b8f9db | grep binutils
    binutils-2_28
    binutils-2_29
    binutils-2_29_1
    binutils-2_29_1.1
    binutils-2_30
    users/ARM/embedded-binutils-2_28-branch-2017q1
    users/ARM/embedded-binutils-2_28-branch-2017q2
    users/ARM/embedded-binutils-master-2017q4

How do I continue from here? Can I be helpful in some way?
