Distros usually build everything with debuginfo and then strip off the
debuginfo. So, building this way would require special build hacks for
the distros.
Maybe instead you could use objcopy to stuff the data into some section
in the executable. Or, just turn the dump to a C file, then compile it
and do a second link. Aside from (maybe hypothetical) C compiler
limits, that would be very portable.
