This was due to epm unconditionally being called without -g ("Don't 
strip executables in distributions").

"Prevent epm from stripping unless explicitly requested" fixes that.

However, one consequence of that fix is that "proper" installation sets 
(generated from --enable-epm builds in insetsetoo_native) are now always 
non-stripped (as the only case where make_installer.pl is called with 
-strip is from top-level "make install-strip" AFAIU), where before they 
were always stripped.  I have lost overview whether that matches 
expectations of people producing such installation sets (for 
<http://www.libreoffice.org/download/> etc.).
