Many autotools-based programs relink libraries and executables during 
the install target. Sometimes waiting until it's been placed into PREFIX 
is the only way to access the final edition.

Also I'm not really sure why we wouldn't allow dealing with files at 
PREFIX in the manner that miwi's commit handles it.

To me, I'd think the bigger question is why it isn't stripping the 
executables already as part of the install target, as autotools stuff 
usually DTRT.
