Ah, interesting.  The openssl package does have a -dbg version, but not for
libopenssl nor libcrypto (which were built by the same source package).  Any
ideas how/why that happened?  I didn't see any magic in the build arguments,
but it's a pretty complex package so I might have missed something.

Just to see what I could learn from this, I tried to install openssl-dbg and got this:

   Downloading file:/home/local/p60_poky/tmp/deploy/ipk/armv7a/openssl-dbg_0.9.8p-r3_armv7a.ipk.
   openssl-dbg: unsatisfied recommendation for libcrypto-dbg
   openssl-dbg: unsatisfied recommendation for libssl-dbg
   Installing openssl (0.9.8p-r3) to root...
   Downloading file:/home/local/p60_poky/tmp/deploy/ipk/armv7a/openssl_0.9.8p-r3_armv7a.ipk.
   Configuring openssl.
   Configuring openssl-dbg.
