I'm not sure if you mean objcopy instead of objdump. Objcopy
for pe images isn't usable, because it changes the file and
section allignments. I think that we need a tool which creates
our new debug section as coff object file from the *.nostriped.*
and that we need our own linker scripts which adds the section
at the correct position within the image. This needs also a
little change in freeldr, because the symbol section must be
located after the bss section in ntoskrnl.
This is getting a bit over my head, I'm no hero with COFF, linker scripts
and binutils in general. If I code the generation of the basic symbol file,
would someone else be able (and willing) to change it to a COFF object file
and do the linker magic?
