That requires you to set up a dumpdev as well as compiling a debugging kernel. But, yes, kernel.debug corresponds to /boot/kernel/kernel. As a side note: If you get the panic PC you can do a gdb -k /sys/i386/KERNELNAME/kernel.debug dis 0xADDRESS and get the disassembly and program listing of the address where things went wrong.
