What if we assume that in a valid separate debug file, the only
sections that will be different will have been totally stripped from
either the before or after file?
IOW:
i = 0 // index in main file
j = 0 // index in separate file
for each section in main file:
if (section names match)
good
else if (section i's name is not present in separate file)
i++, continue
else if (section j's name is not present in separate file)
j++, continue
else
complain that the two files do not match
?
