Hi Bryan,

I hit this too and was looking into it. There's something not right with
the ojbcopy recipe that separates debug info into its own file, strips
debug info from the original file and tags the original with
--add-gnu-debuglink.

If you want to avoid the problem you can add --disable-debug-symbols to
the configure stage.
