* Add --extract-symbol command line option to objcopy, which will
strip everything out of an ordinary object file or executable except
for its symbol table. Files containing just symbols can be useful
to some OSes.
* Add "-x NAME" to readelf in addition to "-x NUMBER".
* Add -i and -t switches to cxxfilt. -i disables the display of implementation

@item --extract-symbol
Keep the file's section flags and symbols but remove all section data.
Specifically, the option:
@itemize
@item sets the virtual and load addresses of every section to zero;
@item removes the contents of all sections;
@item sets the size of every section to zero; and
@item sets the file's start address to zero.
@end itemize
This option is used to build a @file{.sym} file for a VxWorks kernel.
It can also be a useful way of reducing the size of a @option{--just-symbols}
linker input file.
@item -V
@itemx --version
Show the version number of @command{objcopy}.
