Not a good idea.

[root@xxxxxx X11R6]# du -hs .
193M    .
[root@xxxxxx X11R6]# find . -type f | xargs strip

# All sorts of "File format not recognized" messages. I'm sure I could
  have refined the search, but what the heck.

[root@xxxxxx X11R6]# du -hs .
57M     .

However, that crashed X. With a lot of "No Symbols found"
messages. Oops.

It might work better if you don't strip the modules. Anyone want to
try that?
