The STRIP variable only applies if the BSD-make AND ${INSTALL_PROGRAM} is
used and wasn't replaced by another definition. Many ported software uses
it's own definition of INSTALL_PROGRAM. I guess that you were talking about
sysutils/bacula, which has (after the configure-step) the following
definition in it's top-level-Makefile:

INSTALL_PROGRAM = /usr/bin/install -c -o root -g wheel -s -m 754

The only way to change that, is to patch the Makefile(s).
