Michael started the thread generally musing about large sizes of object files
from C++.  And he has a point :)

And he found my blog post showing the (absurd !!) gains from stripping, tried
it on macOS and had issues.  It so happens that I just updated the stone-old
RcppClassic on the weekend, and in my infinite wisdom include such a call to
strip with the unavailable-on-macOS option :-/   Oops. I broke my build.

Fix coming to a CRAN mirror near you, likely testing for /usr/bin/strip AND
being on Linux.
