[mythtv-users] Compile failure with CVS version of Myth

I seem to have a problem with the 'make install' step.

After a successful make, performing a 'make install' from 'libs/libmyth'
gives the following error:

strip "/usr/local/include/mythtv/dialogbox.h"
strip: /usr/local/include/mythtv/dialogbox.h: File format not recognized

Apparently, the makefile is calling strip on every file, and strip fails
on non-libraries.

This is RadHat9, and the problem only just appeared (Myth compiles used
to work fine).

Does qmake really create Makefiles that call strip on every single file?
Seems that way.  

Thanks for any help

[I could not post this to mythtv-dev, since the mailing list controls
seem to be non-functional]
