After reading many of the replies, I would like to suggest that this is
a special problem. Using the "strongest" glues is not a fix all solution.
The grain direction, shrinking and swelling etc of the joint calls for a
flexible glue and that is often not the "strongest" glue. That is why I
suggest looking for a product designed for this type of joint and not just
choosing an otherwise great glue for this job.

In the old days horse glue was used but than it was rare to have 300 pound
plus person putting unnecessary stresses on old furniture that was designed
for a 150 pounder.
