For what it's worth, the gold linker has a strip-debug-non-line that
preserves only what is needed to get a stack trace.

I believe the google branches of GCC have a -gmlt option that
generates only enough debug info to get a stack trace.  I don't think
that option has been contributed back to main line yet.
