+## Test that bogus associative section symbols in executables are ignored.

+## The executable contains two (bogus) associative section symbols, both for
+## (parts of) the .rdata section; one pointing at the .debug_info section
+## (which will be stripped out) and one pointing at a nonexistent section.
+##
+## Check that stripping does succeed, and that it doesn't end up removing
