linux x64: gtest libjvm.so without debug symbols?

[Thomas Stüfe]

Hi,

I may be missing something very obvious, but I am not able to debug the
gtest-libjvm (the one gtestLauncher uses, from
hotspot/variant-server/libjvm).

I build with --with-native-debug-symbols=external
--with-debug-level=slowdebug.

In the build log I see that we preserve the debug information for the
standard libjvm.so with objcopy, but we don't for the gtest variant,
instead we strip the debug information.

Was that intentional?

Thanks, Thomas
