Increase of crunched-binary size is due to this upstream commit:
https://sourceware.org/git/?p=binutils-gdb.git;a=commitdiff;h=023e60ced0c850aa32ac4a948877d25592d44401;hp=c0a07e7d48801c7cffaf825545fc05024a7c686e

Now, .note.netbsd.* sections are located behind .eh_frame.
Therefore, strip(1) cannot remove .eh_frame, and carries out
zero clear for that section instead.

This does not affect non-crunched binaries, for which we
do not strip .eh_frame sections.

This seems to be fixed if we revert the upstream commit, or
replace .note.netbsd.* sections earlier in the rodata sections.
But, I'm not very sure which fix is preferable...

Thanks,
