Thank you.  Indeed, at least the pretest releases should not be
stripped.

We could also consider providing a separate zip file with debugging
symbols even for the release versions (the 'objcopy' utility is
capable of moving the debug information to a separate file, and then
adding a special "debug-link" section in the executable that points to
that file, which allows GDB to debug it).
