+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #191587 +++

the issue is similar to Bug #191587, 'strip' removes not requested sections

$ echo 'int fun(int x){return x+42;}' > misc.c && cc -c misc.c && ar -rc misc.a
misc.o && cp misc.a misc2.a
$ strip -R .comment misc.a
$ ranlib misc.a
ranlib: warning: can't find .strtab section
$ readelf -e misc.a
