strip.c from the version of binutils on prep as of 17 Nov 89 (latest
ChangeLog: 3 Nov 89) would not compile on our Sun4/Sparcstation
machines.  The problem was that reloc_information has been renamed in
a.out.h (really <machine/a.out.h> for sparc architectures.

A solution that worked for me for now was to simply redefine the two
symbol names which changed.
