The recipe in question is part of meta-oe and thus is maintained by 
OpenEmbedded rather than the Yocto Project, so ultimately someone in the 
OpenEmbedded community should fix it, yes. Fixing "already stripped" issues 
usually isn't too hard, it just depends on how the software in question is 
being built.
