	On my system - r334207 - it's only in src.conf, and the man page
is ... imprecise ... about the consequemces of using it. "avoid
building standalone debug files" - does that mean no files are built,
or that there's some kind of unified file?  And wouldn't the former
make it impossible to debug non-kernel stuff in base?
