I'll commit this in just a moment.

I think this should be fixed by the build environment, or possibly
$(INSTALL), being arranged to not have this bug.  If $(INSTALL) -s
doesn't work then this should be fixed.  Options include putting a
symlink to /bin/true on the path somewhere under the name `strip', or
overriding INSTALL somehow to a more clever program.

I really don't want to apply these Makefile changes.  That is the kind
of thing which makes merging painful.

Ian.
