Any C programmers out there know why this command fails on OS X standalone engine?

# strip test.app/Contents/MacOS/Revolution
strip: the __LINKEDIT segment does not cover the end of the file (can't be processed) in: test.app/Contents/MacOS/Revolution


On most executables, the strip command will remove debug symbols, if there are any, thus reducing the filesize of the executable. Sometimes this can reduce filesize by as much as 50%.

man strip

       LIMITATIONS
       Not  every layout of a Mach-O file can be stripped by this
       program.  But all layouts produced by the  Apple  compiler
       system can be stripped.

I thought the Rev OS X engines were being built with Apple PB/gcc now but I don't know for a fact.
