Rsym should strip the stabs symbols. What do you need more?
Thinking about it, I believe the difference between the before-rbuild and after-rbuild situation is that before, stabs symbols would be stripped (for both DBG := 0 and 1) but rossym symbols (which make the symbolic stack traceback possible) were only added for DBG := 1. Now, for both DBG := 0 and 1, stabs symbols are stripped but rossym symbols are added even for DBG := 0. Personally I think this is a good thing, as it will allow testers to report meaningfull stack traces.
