Hi,
I saw some of this discussion on the systemd-devel list so I'm happy to
see patches to sort out the configuration on our side, thanks!

I think we should make minidebuginfo a DISTRO_FEATURE and then key all
the tweaks off that.
I was looking at your patches and thinking we might want to enable
minidebuginfo in poky or perhaps OE-Core by default too.
A test to ensure this backtracing works and stays working would be
really nice too! (whilst we have the context in our heads)
Cheers,
Richard
