Looks like /usr/src/UPDATING could use an entry about r339350.

I was updating an r339290 world to r341703.  This jumps across
r339350.  /usr/bin/strip from r339290 apparently is used during
installworld, which renders a system rather broken.   

20181013: 
   At r339350, /usr/bin/strip was updated to deal with the introduction
   of ifuncs into FreeBSD.  In particular, a /usr/bin/strip from an earlier
   revision can lead to a broken system.  To avoid mayhem, it is suggested
   that one does

   cd /usr/src/usr.bin/objcopy
   make install

   prior to 'make installworld'
