GDB can read debug info from a separate file, so it's quite possible to
split the libraries, leaving a stripped version, and a file of the
stripped info.

PLD ships their binaries this way, a foo package and foo-debuginfo
package. Works nicely, can download the corresponsing debuginfo if it's
needed.
