Public bug reported:
In the man page of "objcopy" the "--strip-unneeded" option:
- is described in OPTIONS section;
- but is forgotten in SYNOPSIS section (don't confuse with
"--strip-unneeded-symbol=" and "--strip-unneeded-symbols=", which aren't
forgotten).
$ lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS
Release: 16.04
$ apt-cache policy binutils

I expected SYNOPSIS and OPTIONS sections of the man page of "objcopy" to
be consistent.
Option "--strip-unneeded" present in OPTIONS section, is absent in
SYNOPSIS section.
