Bug Description

Debian lately passes the following to make: INDTALL=install --strip-program=true

this causes 'make install' to fail in geda because of the check in build-tools/icon-theme-installer:

if test ! -x `echo "$INSTALL_DATA_EXEC" | cut -f1 -d' '`; then
 echo "Cannot find '$INSTALL_DATA_EXEC'; You probably want to pass -x \$(INSTALL_DATA)"
exit 1

this fails with the following error:

Cannot find 'install --strip-program=true -m 644'; You probably want to pass -x $(INSTALL_DATA)
