[Buildroot] [pull request] Pull request for branch for-2011.08/debugging-improvements

[Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com>]

Hello,

Here is a small set of patches that improves a few things around
debugging.

The main change is that debugging symbols are now enabled by
default. As explained in the commit log, the reasoning is that
debugging symbols in the staging directory are often useful for remote
debugging, and disk space is typically not a problem for the staging
directory, as it remains on the development workstation. Binaries and
libraries for the target are still stripped by default, getting rid of
all debugging symbols.

Regards,

Thomas
