This could well be a bug in elfcopy's libpe - it's a new addition to
the ELF Tool Chain project, and I have not tested it extensively
outside of the plain boot1.efi and loader.efi. To confirm my
understanding, this happens with your patched tree, but not stock
FreeBSD? Also, in what way are they corrupted? It's expected that
section will be truncated, as the COFF format only supports char[8]
for the name.

If you mail me (off-list) a copy of boot1.sym I'll take a look.
