Well, nothing that has been said so far brings to mind anything
I've seen or heard, however, I'm quite confident the issues
aren't because some binaries in X (or any other package) were
stripped).
Note that the following two lines were directly copied from my
Xorg build script and I don't have any issues with X. There are
similar lines in all my build scripts (but typically the
individual binaries are listed, not en mass like below):
find /usr/X11R6/bin -type f -exec strip --strip-all {} \;
find /usr/X11R6/lib -type f -exec strip --strip-debug {} \;
