This won't help much; even if we set the debug dir to
$DESTDIR/usr/libdata/debug for crossgdb it won't help due to the
way that pathname lookups for the detached debug works; crossgdb
$DESTDIR/foo will look for $DESTDIR/usr/libdata/debug/$DESTDIR/foo.debug
not $DESTDIR/usr/libdata/debug/foo.debug, and the .debug files are
installed under the latter not the former.
