Help with shared libraries

(My apologies if you have allready seen this).  Recently, in a mad attempt
to regain some disk space, I decided to strip some of the shared libraries
used by sunview. A few dayes later I found out that sunview now
core-dumped as soon as it was invoked. All dbx could tell that the problem
occured somewhere inside etext() called by start().  Can anyone tell me
what strip did to the library to cause this problem and is there anyway to
fix the library easily (I ended up restoring the files from Sun's
distribution tape). This was on a Sun 3 with SunOS 4.0.1. Thanks
