The error you are seeing looks like a broken object file, the patch here will affect the type of features a target might use during code generation but it shouldn't affect strip. I suggest dumping the ELF file with readelf or objdump and look at the section output for section 11. Some sections have a special meaning for the sh_link field (http://www.sco.com/developers/gabi/latest/ch4.sheader.html#sh_link) it looks like strip is complaining that either a section is missing a sh_link field that it should have or it has an invalid index. It will also be worth seeing if the objects in that library have been processed by any other tool such as objcpy to see if it has introduced an error.
