+## We set the content of the string table to '0061626300' ('\0abc\0') to fixup the size of the string table.
+# RUN: yaml2obj %s -DSTRTABCONTENT="0061626300" -DSYM1STNAME=4 -DSYM2STNAME=5 -o %t.signame.o

I am testing 2 cases here:
1) (OK) When the `StName` == [size of string table - 1]
2) (FAIL) When `StName` == size of string table

I think we should know its size for this test and test values on border.
It can be done easier when the content of the string table is known.

Also in the test below I am changing the content to remove the zero terminator, keeping `st_name` values the same.
This proves that we can never read past the end of the string table and that way we can't have a situation of reading
past the EOF.
