that's the wrong answer.  a quick workaround would be to
stop installing two copies of the same binary and have
ofwboot and ofwboot.net linked together.

ideally, we should strip -g these for installation, but
leave the debug info somewhere.


wait.  is that COPTS=-g also means "no -O"?  if so, then
i recommend that you use "COPTS=-g -O2".  actually, i've
always thought the right way is to set DBG, not COPTS.
