FUNCTION
- _bfd_strip_section_from_output

-SYNOPSIS
- void _bfd_strip_section_from_output

-DESCRIPTION
- Remove @var{section} from the output. If the output section
- becomes empty, remove it from the output bfd.
-
- This function won't actually do anything except twiddle flags
- if called too late in the linking process, when it's not safe
- to remove sections.
