Right -- see my last email that I just sent before seeing yours.
You already can specify an alternative for the stripped module
directory starting path, but I don't believe it will find the
associated .ko.debug file.

So we're talking about two different scenarios:

(1) Michael has both the /lib/modules/... and /usr/lib/debug/lib/modules/...
    trees dumped in his current directory, and
(2) I believe you're specifying that only /usr/lib/debug/lib/modules/...
    tree would be in your current directory.

But with (2), the base stripped module directory starting path still
needs to be there (someplace).
