Just FYI, I ran across this comment in Arch's PKGBUILD for glibc (which
I've not verified, and blindly followed):
# Do not strip the following files for improved debugging support
# ("improved" as in not breaking gdb and valgrind...):
# ld-${pkgver}.so
# libc-${pkgver}.so
# libpthread-${pkgver}.so
# libthread_db-1.0.so
Now, as to how useful that actually is in practice, I can't honestly see
a need being that everything else is already lacking...
Anyway, --strip-debug for static libs, --strip-unneeded for shared libs,
and --strip-all for executable files is what is default for makepkg (and
coincidentally is what I have stuck with for a while).
