There seems to be some target for 'kernel-install.debug' in the makefile
that is generated to compile the kernel. However, that looks like it
ends up doing:
install -c -m 555 -o root -g wheel -fschg kernel.debug /kernel
There also seems to be a 'modules-install.debug', which seems to be
exactly the same as 'modules-install'...
Since I want to do a buildworld for something else right now, I'm also
poking thru these makefiles to see if I can get 'installkernel' to
install the modules WITHOUT debug symbols, even when DEBUG=-g is set.
(this on the makefiles in my -stable system)
