#3610: Installer has hard-coded path /usr/bin/strip

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.
