when I build my Cocoa-Application using the Build-Configuration
"Release" there are a lot of strings in the executable binary file

The strings I extract from the binary using the utility strings.
For example there are absolute pathes to Objective-C Source files.
In my opinion those must not be in an exacutable file which I want
to release. Also there are some names of attribute-variables
belonging to an Obj-C class.
The problem with absolute paths has been fixed for a future release
of GCC. Unfortunately there's no workaround today. (I wish there
was...I've been looking forward to this fix for a while.)
I'm not sure about the question of variables -- that might be
necessary for Obj-C's dynamism, but it might not. If you're unsure,
file a bug report at <http://bugreport.apple.com/> and someone'll
take a look at it.
