 On some systems, strip may not be located in /usr/bin.
 And even if it is, that might not be the version of strip
 we need to use, e.g., in a virtual hosting environment.

 See, for example,
 [http://substack.net/posts/ea85c2/Happstack-on-Dreamhost-Notes this blog
 post]
 about installing GHC on Dreamhost.

 It seems that GHC ought to locate strip using $PATH,
 or some other mechanism that can be configured.
