Yeah, this is a better way, I found install-strip does not work under mingw for a long time.
Here is what I did before:
make install
cd to installed_folder
strp *.exe

I keep the unstripped binary in the build tree, because I can debug it under MinGW, I'm not sure I can do this if I move the stripped version to some other place, maybe I need to adjust the source path.
