Description Nicolas Jombart 2002-10-25 17:00:06 UTC
	Porter's handbook says in 15.1 "do strip binaries", but 
	INSTALL_PROGRAM will do it in any case via install(1).

	You can also see http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=42981

Fix: The proposed fix only remove this part, but some may prefer
	a quick note that says binaries are stripped on install.
How-To-Repeat: 
	n/a

From-To: open->closed

Instead of just whacking the entire section, I updated the 
information to a more useful state. I'm not sure why I'd 
want to strip something without using the INSTALL_PROGRAM 
macro, but just in case I ever do, information on how to 
do it is available. ::) 

Thanks for submitting this PR, and bringing the issue to 
my attention in the first place!
