--all option which displays text from anywhere in the input file(s). The
default used to be --data, which only displays text from loadable data sections,
but this requires the use of the BFD library. Since the BFD library almost
certainly still contains buffer overrun and/or memory corruption bugs, and
since the strings program is often used to examine malicious code, it was
decided that the --data option option represents a possible security risk.
* strings.c: Add new command line option --data to only scan the
initialized, loadable data secions of binaries. Choose the
default behaviour of --all or --data based upon a configure
option.
