------- Comment #1 from ddkilzer at webkit.org  2007-08-15 10:01 PDT -------
Thanks for filing a bug, Artem.  I apologize, I should have looked at the diff
closer:

http://trac.webkit.org/projects/webkit/changeset/24603

Basically, the *.strip files were an artifact of the old shell scripts.  With
the new Perl scripts, they aren't needed anymore and thus they don't need to be
removed anymore.

It's possible after upgrading that you may have old copies sitting in a
directory (that will never get removed by the build process anymore), but it's
safe to delete them.

The fact that they're called *.strip files is not meaningful--there's nothing
special about them related to the strip(1) command.  It just meant that
comments had been stripped from the *.in files that they were created from.
