Comment (by bwynkoop@…):

 It is typical that when software is considered production release that it
 is stripped.  Debugging symbols are typically used by developers, not end
 users.  The end user does not need the symbols for any reason.  The
 symbols make the binaries bigger.

 Typically the strip is done as part of the install process defined in the
 make file.  Take a look at pretty much any make file in FreeBSD ports or
 NetBsd pkgsrc as well as the make files for FreeBSD base.  Everything gets
 stripped on install when it is production release code.
