config STRIP_ALL_TOOLCHAIN_EXECUTABLES
    bool
    prompt "Strip all toolchain executables"
    default y
    help
      All build host executables contain a lot of unnecessary info.
      By stripping all executables it slightly speeds up the compilation
      of large projects.
      NOTE: It does NOT strip the target libraries, only HOST executables


Right... I shouldn't be stripping libraries, unless we introduce
STRIP_ALL_TOOLCHAIN_LIBRARIES... which we currently do not.

Maybe this will suffice?:

            for _file in $(find ${CT_PREFIX_DIR} -type f | xargs file | \
                    grep 'not stripped'| grep 'executable' | cut -d: -f1); do
                CT_DoExecLog ALL ${CT_HOST}-strip ${strip_args} "${_file}"
            done

Then we are basically getting all of the executables that are not stripped.
The more options we add to find, the faster find will run. So if we
know that all 'executables' are actually '0755' or '0775' (at least
executable by the user), we could add that to find too.
