Can we provide debug symbols as additional download? Or do you have to

I'm not sure that gcc supports having debug symbols in a separate file,
It's not a GCC option, it's an objcopy option (--only-keep-debug).
See the section in the GDB manual pointed to by Jan for more details.
However, as this option is a close relative of `strip', I'm afraid
that it might not work, for the same (unknown) reasons stripping the
dumped Emacs executable doesn't work.
