Stripping Pathnames

It seems that the compiler puts the full pathname of every Objective-C/C++ file it compiles into the generated executable (even when compiling without "-g").

For instance, these paths are from iPhoto:

/SourceCache/iPhotoProject/iPhotoProject-263/ScopeApp/Album/Album.mm
/SourceCache/iPhotoProject/iPhotoProject-263/ScopeApp/Album/AlbumMgr.mm
/SourceCache/iPhotoProject/iPhotoProject-263/ScopeApp/Album/ AlbumViewController.mm
/SourceCache/iPhotoProject/iPhotoProject-263/ScopeApp/Album/BookAlbum.mm
[and many more]


I'd prefer to strip information like this from Deployment builds but "strip" doesn't do it.

Suggestions? Any speculation on why putting this kind of thing in the executable is a good idea?

Perry
