    Hello...

    I hope it will be a feature on the NetBSD 2.0 Release Candidates only.
    But, why are all binaries not stripped? Is it a requirement for
    debugging SMP and native threads? Will this annoying change be
    permanent? Debugging information should not be required in
    production binaries, though.

    Best regards,
    Igor.
