So you recommend instead:

"If disk space is very tight, the --strip-unneeded option can be used on 
the binaries and libraries in /{lib,sbin,bin,usr/{bin,sbin,lib}} to gain 
several more megabytes."

Is that right?

That makes me a little nervous.  I think I might be more in favor of 
just dropping the last paragraph.  At the end of Chapter 6, a few MB 
should just not be significant.  You get a lot more space by removing 
/tools as described in section 6.64, 488M in my case.
