Yeah, in hindsight I might have asked for something not even desirable.
While some of these contain executable code, no one every asked for the debug
data of it.
Furthermore as Sergio found they (all btw) unconditionally strip one or the
other way.

openbios-ppc

...
also other source like opensbi
32 »···»···riscv64-linux-gnu-strip --remove-section=.comment \
And so on.
To be fair some of them started to make it possible to not strip e.g
https://github.com/qemu/qemu/commit/a70248dbd381b2ce82192acdcbc3bde441e6c29b
but the majority of what is fetched into roms/ is not.
I didn't raise this issue in the past because I needed it for anything,
only because I was seeing that it was missing and wondering. If someone
ends up debugging these low level files, they likely want to hand-craft
the build anyway to further improve (e.g. no optimizations) and control
(less features) the situation for debuggability.
Let me shut down my old request for now, anyone with real use case is
invited to present it and then this can be re-considered.
