Comment (by jreed):
We use automake.

Targets
Their policy is: ``Do not strip executables when installing them. This
helps eventual debugging that may be needed later, and nowadays disk space
is cheap and dynamic loaders typically ensure debug sections are not
loaded during normal execution. Users that need stripped binaries may
invoke the install-strip target to do that.''
(By the way, while pkgsrc does strip by default, NetBSD base is not
stripped.)
