[leafnode-list] [FIX] 1.9.9 not installing symbols

[Matthias Andree <ma@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Note: this patch will me mirrored at
ftp://krusty.e-technik.uni-dortmund.de/pub/people/ma/ 

Apply the following patch before doing `sh ./configure'. It will create
an additional target, `make install-strip', which will install the
software with symbols stripped, while the behaviour of `make install' is
changed so that symbols are kept in the installed software as
recommended in the GNU make Makefile guidelines. See `info make' for
details. See CHANGES (readable below) for other changes. 

This patch is against 1.9.9. To apply, cd to your leafnode-1.9.9
directory, and send this mail into `patch -p0' (either by pipe or stdin
redirection). 

Assume you save this mail to /tmp/ln199ma1.diff, then do:

cd /path/to/leafnode-1.9.9 && \
patch -p0 </tmp/ln199ma1.diff && \
rm /tmp/ln199ma1.diff

 5. If you are updating leafnode from a version before 1.9.3 (including
    all 1.9.3 beta versions before 1.9.3b5), "make update". This will call
