You can use 'strip -aout <fname>' to strip it. As far as I know, there is currently no way to specify the executable format to 'install -s'. I haven't tried it, but you might be able to use the OBJFORMAT or OBJECT_FORMAT (not sure which form is correct) environment variable to make install DTRT for aout.
