I am quite baffled.  Maybe there is some reason this doesn't work, but
right now I can't think of what it might be.  Unused strings are removed
from static functions, as you'd expect.

I can't think of any reason that each string should not be put into a
unique section.  It's need a unique name for each string, but that isn't
hard.
