It appears strip -o creates new files without preserving permissions
from the source binary, resulting in non executable files.

Untested. This is purely based on what i see in http://fate.ffmpeg.org/

Alternatively, although probably much harder to do, would be to make
FATE run the fftools from the install folder rather than the build
folder, which is what it's apparently doing right now. But that also
only solves the issue for test/fate.sh and not for the resulting non
execurable binary in the build folder.

This sounds like something the OpenBSD people should be informed of, no?

Maybe they already know and it was fixed at some point, seeing the
OpenBSD fate client we have has software from 2007 (gcc 4.2, and safe to
assume equally outdated binutils).

OpenBSD doesn't update their toolchain AFAIK, but maintains their own forks,
so probably still useful.

Looking at the packages shipped by OpenBSD in its latest version, they
are using GCC 4.9, so I'm going to assume this was fixed long ago.

Does anyone use a recent OpenBSD to confirm this, in any case? I may be
able to add a GCC version check depending on that to this patch.

Pushed it as is in the meantime.
