At this point, I say raise his Strength on all ability score level ups. I don't believe in raising Constitution, under the assumption that HP bonuses from it only add to HP after it is raised (not retroactive from level one -- If that's wrong, please let me know). Also, your Dex works well with the kind of armor a Barbarian can wear if I remember correctly. Therefore, higher Dex wouldn't do much good. Finally, I think you can mitigate saving throw weaknesses driven by your low wisdom and intelligence through feats rather than raising those stats.

For IWDII, I think it's all about making your character an absolute machine in the stats that are important to them and not worrying much about the other stats.
