if I understand correctly, "make install-strip" strips libtool libraries
(LTLIBRARIES). (see /usr/share/automake-1.9/am/ltlib.am)
Thus one solution, general and robust, is to use libtool.
Libraries declared with LIBRARIES are not stripped, see
/usr/share/automake-1.9/am/libs.am. The problem is that variable
libLIBRARIES_INSTALL is set to $(INSTALL_DATA).
A quick workaround might be to do
make libLIBRARIES_INSTALL="install -s" install-strip
supposing that you know that "install -s" strips and installs the library
on your platform.
To generalize this, you'd have to patch /usr/share/automake-1.9/am/libs.am.
The details are beyond my knowledge.
HTH,
