STRIP is used during the build in the nb8390.rom, nb3c509.rom,
nb8390.com, and nb3c509.com targets. Setting it to the strip(1)
at that point works fine, and `strip -aout' is executed during
the build.
During the install, where "strip -aout" is passed as a switch to
install(1) in bsd.prog.mk, install(1) wants to install a program
named strip. The problem is that STRIP used `locally' for the
build conflicts with its use in bsd.prog.mk. Clearing it
with beforeinstall allows it to be used during the build but
gets it out of the way for install.
Granted this is a bit of a dirty way to do it, but it was the
first thing that came to mind and I need to roll a release
tonight. Something other than STRIP probably should have been
used to pass `strip -aout' during the build since anything other
than a valid switch for install(1) will knock the install over.
