It occurs to me that there is little downside if the ebuilds were to add
debug symbols...?  ebuilds are very convenient if you have a gentoo box, a
bit like rpm's but with much more flexibility and power, plus they come from
the latest source.  Another nice bit is that apart from a slight hiccup with
XMLTwig you can just write "ebuild mythtv-cvs" and the whole lot unfolds on
your machine including dependencies where required - very nice!

These are all other people's ebuild scripts though, so no credit here,
however, I added a mythgame one based on one of the other ebuilds.  I will
investigate how to add debug symbols as part of the ebuild and make them
available somewhere.
