As I have moved on to bug #3515, which is to find out where the code
went for creating the stripped binary, I just realized that I misread
the size of vmlinux.bin in arch/mips/boot/.  The source code supports
that this is the stripped vmlinux the defect was looking for.

8337264 2013-03-21 16:36 vmlinux.bin

So I expect you'll want to ignore this patch while I rethink it.
