I've seen some posts here to the effect that there is no need to strip
debug info from a kernel, because this info is not loaded into memory.
But somewhere in Lehey's book, i thought i saw a statement that the
symbols ARE loaded into memory to allow debugging, and so they DO take up
system resources.  WHich is true?  p.s.  I'll keep looking for that
statement, i thought i found it but it was the wrong one...
