Re: [AD] allegro stripping

[Jon Rafkind <workmin@xxxxxxxxxx>]

My understanding of it is stripping takes all the symbols out, making 
the program smaller but nearly impossible to debug it. Im not sure if 
there are any speed-up improvements so it would only save space which is 
probably trivial in the setups of today's users. If the user really 
wants to strip the library, they can do $ strip liballeg.so.
