Yes, you would think that "Strip Linked Product" would be sufficient to
strip the linked product. I thought so, but it turned out there is more to
it than that. If you read the description for this setting, it reads:
"Activating this setting causes the linked product of the build to be
stripped of symbols as part of deployment postprocessing."
So to actually strip the symbols you also have to turn on the "Deployment
Postprocessing" setting.
Not sure how this might affect your original concern about static libraries,
but I hope this helps.
