 Building debug info for the kernel(s) is enabled by adding
 MKKDEBUG=yes (I have it in /etc/mk.conf, but should work as well if
 passed via -V on the build.sh command line). For each netbsd
 kernel generated, it creates an additional netbsd.gdb.
 But this is not installed / packaged anywheree.
 
 Christos recently added .debug files for modules, so with MKDEBUG=yes you
 should have all symbols in the build results.
 
 So we need to somehow package the netbsd.gdb files and make them available
 in the release dir.
