MIPS gas doesn't set SH_FLAG

Here is a rather simple program:
.section .debug_frame,0x7000001e,0x8000000,0,4
.byte 0
I'm trying to assemble it on an IRIX64 6.5 system with a recently
released gas and with gas built from snapshot sources dated today.
That section flag bit is for SHF_MIPS_NOSTRIP. elfdump shows that
it isn't set in the output file. It is set when assembled with the
IRIX assembler. I bumped into this one -- didn't go hunting for
other flags...
Is this a simple missing piece or part of a bigger, messier puzzle,
or ???
Thanks,
Brett
