2 already debated.

4 The 'debug' USE variable, if set to -debug, still let the libraries
5 (and some binaries) un-stripped.

7 Is it a good idea to add a variable to force a strip of debug symbols,
8 and perform all install(1) with -s or strip manually before
9 install/build the binary package?

12 symbols is an important gain.
