As far as I'm concerned, everything we see in this resulting patch
(like studying how we should sift $(ALL_PROGRAMS) into two classes,
one that can be stripped and the other that shouldn't be) came from
your brain.  I may have helped you in writing it down in a better
form but I see it within the usual "Helped-by:".

Applying this to the same base as the previous iteration of the
topic that I queued in 'seen', and running "git range-diff" between
them, I see that there is no difference at all, so I'll keep the one
I already have, but I probably should correct the authorship
information for it (I failed to notice you had in-body From: header
that shifts the blame for this change on me---you should be the
author of this change).

IOW, here is what I would expect in a situation like this.

Subject: [PATCH] make: add INSTALL_STRIP option variable

Add $(INSTALL_STRIP), which allows passing stripping options to
$(INSTALL).

For this to work, installing executables must be split to installing
compiled binaries and scripts portions, since $(INSTALL_STRIP) is only
meaningful to the former.

Users can set this variable depending on their system. For example,
Linux users can use `-s --strip-program=strip`, while FreeBSD users can
simply set to `-s` and choose strip program with $STRIPBIN.
