<pre>In LLVM output style, llvm-readobj emits an error if you try to dump the
symbols (or dynamic symbols) of an object where one or more of the symbols
contains an invalid section index. This could happen because the ELF is
malformed, but for dynamic symbols at least, it can also happen with legitimate
objects when sections have been removed by e.g. llvm-objcopy --strip-sections,
if the object contains a dynamic symbol defined in the object. Note that GNU
output doesn't have this issue, because it doesn't try to look up the section
name. We should change this error to a warning to make this option usable in
such situations.</pre>
