It's quite usual to compile with the debugging symbols by default and then
strip them at package generation time. 

It's even requested by debian policy to not strip at that time (and make
sure the debugging symbols are in place) when a certain env var is set.
So, if you do the effort to actually do this minor cleaning, it'll ask me
some effort work here. 

The gain don't really worth the efforts, do they?
