Hey Koen, All,

I would like to revert:

        98a7d32826bc362c4ee434e7a4def7c852e75281

The reason is that:
        This commit has introduced several breakages including
        stripping libc_nonshared.a breaking the gcc in the SDK and
         for the device.
         It has created build errors in meta-toolchain for binutils, gdb
         see my illfated patch...

I don't think we need to strip .a files as they will not end on the device

They do actually

and people will link their binaries to them and we will strip the binaries.

There was a discussion about that and I didn't see people objection, the only point of contention was where to package the debug symbols. How do you propropose to solve the problem that the .a files are huge? Also, you don't mention any problems, you only say "I [..] think", which usually isn't a good enough reason to revert stuff :)

regards,

Koen
