MAybe. Sorry, we have never tried this yet.

There is probably no explicit strip command, rather the stripping is
automatically done during the final link step by some "-s" options.
This is probably a RPM setting. Try running rpm with the "--showrc"
option and search of "-s" - the LDFLAGS are a likely candiate.
