----------------------------+----------------------
 Our CMake build does not strip release binaries resulting in bloated
 tarballs (especially if we build internal GDAL, whose un-stripped size is
 over 100MB).

 This can be address by:
  * Setting `CPACK_STRIP_FILES` to `TRUE` to ensure all library targets are
 stripped before packaging
  * Manually running `strip` on any external `.so` files that are
 "installed" (eg. Internal gdal/xalan/xerces)
