--- Comment #2 from Jakub Jelinek <jakub at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
And on ELF target the .comment section is also SHF_MERGE | SHF_STRINGS, so
identical strings in there are actually merged, so one only gets one string for
each unique gcc version string that has participated in the compilation of the
binary or shared library.
No idea whether PE format can do something similar.
