Summary: please document that (and why) Go binaries should not
be stripped
Product: gcc
Version: 5.0
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: go

please document that (and why) Go binaries should not be stripped.
the standard action for distributions is to strip binaries unconditionally,
however there are some issues seen when binaries are stripped. The Debian and
Ubuntu builds strip libgo itself, which seems to work fine, but stripping some
applications leads to errors. So it would be good to know which information
can be safely stripped, and which not.
