Yes.  I had to figure this out just a week or two ago when I was
debugging Nautilus and GnomeVFS.

Yup.

That is what I did at first pass, but if you look a little deeper into
it, giving spec-helper the -s flag simply sets the environment
variable "DONT_STRIP=1".  You can do just the same in your spec file.

Just put:

export DONT_STRIP=1

at the start of the %install section and it won't strip the files.
