"Outboard" debug symbols.
Some googling just turned up this interesting comment:
Interesting quirk: on MacOS 10.6.2, if you include a source file in the
'link' line, then the dsymutil program is run to generate the .dSYM
information; if you only link object files and libraries, then the
dsymutil program is not run so the .dSYM information is not
generated. You can validate this with the '-v' option to GCC which shows
the programs executed by 'gcc'.
So maybe we can get rid of it by not using the "shortcut" of skipping
creation of a .o file. Off to try that ...
regards, tom lane
