 Yes. And it is not clear for which media/images/install types the full
 debug info kernel would be usefull, so we should not change that.
 
 But having an easy way to download the matching netbsd.gdb for releases
 (and "daily" builds) would be great.
 
 I'm not sure that would be enough to resolve this PR, but it is a very simple
 step forward.
