Fix install-strip when $(STRIP) contains several words.

2010-11-01 Thread Ralf Wildenhues
I was wondering whether, if $(STRIP) is empty, one would want install-strip to have the same effect as install, but then again, the value of $(STRIP) at 'make install' time isn't currently used for all stripping anyway: libtool figures out how to strip things at configure time (and sets things
