The patch is not committable as is. In particular, the patch hardcodes
the /usr/src as the source location.

I think the right thing to do is to install the stripbin.sh into usr/bin,
might be under the name like freebsd_stripbin. Also, I think the script
should use the full pathes to the utilities, but I am not sure about
this part, esp. in regard the cross-build.
