Subject: * NEWS: support for installing stripped libraries using GNU strip
X-Git-Tag: release-1-3b~54
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=4b45958069d413c63a913ba2b72b971aea1495e5;p=thirdparty%2Flibtool.git

* 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"
