Note that just moving ports debug data to /usr/local/lib/debug/... won't work since GDB won't search there. We could teach it to search a list of paths and include /usr/local/lib/debug and /usr/lib/debug, or perhaps a symlink under /usr/local/lib. We could also use a .debug subdirectory for ports and other users of bsd.lib.mk - so for example /usr/local/lib/libfoo.so would have debug info in /usr/local/lib/.debug/libfoo.so.debug.
