For the record, pkg-create-dbgsym should now work correctly with the new
behaviour. pkg-create-dbgsym must handle the 'debug link already exists'
case anyway.

 pkg-create-dbgsym (0.8) edgy; urgency=low
 .
   * Remove the Essential: flag for -dbgsym package control records and fix
     Priority: to extra.
   * dhtest.noargs/Makefile: Add GNU debuglink to generated crash file; it's
     not entirely unreasonable for upstream or package build systems to do this
     without using dh_strip --dbg-package.
   * pkg_create_dbgsym: Remove GNU debuglink before adding our own, to not
     break if the binary already has its own. Remove the 'more than one
     hardlink' special case again, since it is now obsolete.

So, this leaves the decision if we need to do the same modification to
debhelper, or revert the glibc change.
