On the other hand, when you've finished debugging and want to provide
an official release, you only have to copy a single file rather than
having to strip it of debugging information first.
It works both ways really, I think the only real advantage either
method has is the one Robert Dewar mentioned about being compatible
with system standards (although I'd be grateful if he'd enlighten us
on exactly what he means by that phrase).
