* NEWS: support for installing stripped libraries using GNU strip

* ltconfig.in: set deplibs_check_method=pass_all on FreeBSD,
  Linux and Solaris since no one can reproduce the famous deplibs
  bug
* ltmain.in: preserve $CC (reported by Tom Tromey),
  strip libraries using GNU strip if it's available and the
  -s flag was passed to "install"
