I am not sure but I think that strip reduces size of binaries even when
you build without -g. It just removes something less important.


strip removes the table of internal symbols.  The effect is that 
backtrace information (whether produced by LO's unmaintained automatic 
crash reporting or manually by a capable user) becomes hard to use (or 
even next to useless).


OK, it would make sense to keep that table. I wonder how it increases
the size of the installation set and if we could afford it for the
release builds.

BTW: Is it the same on Windows and MAC? I have zero experience with
stripping binaries there.


Best Regards,

PS: I am sorry but I do not have time to play with it before I do the
tag for 3.5.3-rc2.
