Several packages (e.g., glibc) have debug enabled. In fact, all packages should enable debug info, it is usually just stripped away.
Be nice to retain that information and package it into -debuginfo packages (as is done on some other distros).
To build a certain package with debug info, get the package (using apt-get source), set DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS to nostrip, and rebuild.
Ok.The prelink problem appears to due to problems with prelinking specific libraries, eg I can prelink libc-2.3.2.so without getting segfaults - i'll try track down which so(s) cause the problem when prelinked.
