[kbd] [PATCH] Install fails due to attempt to apply "install -s" to a shell script

[kbd] [PATCH] Install fails due to attempt to apply "install -s" to a shell script

[Marty Jack]

In 1.14 and 1.14.1wip, install fails with the following error:

install -s -m 0755 dumpkeys loadkeys showkey setfont showconsolefont setleds setmetamode kbd_mode chvt deallocvt psfxtable kbdrate fgconsole openvt mapscrn loadunimap unicode_start unicode_stop /usr/bin
strip: /usr/bin/unicode_start: File format not recognized
install: strip process terminated abnormally

The coreutils that is supplying install is version 6.10.  It is unknown to me whether other versions also fail.

The following patch corrects the problem.
