Still, on the other side, there are people who really do use their rawhide
machines for everyday tasks (I do). Maybe they are just interested in
developing/debugging their stuff on the latest versions of software and
don't really care about kernel debugging.

I believe we shouldn't make peoples lives harder here. I'd opt for a build
time option in the spec to enable this hack.
I don't see why we should leave people alone with the ugly NVIDIA installer
that is quite destructive in the way it installs it's files.
Good! so you have
been elected to maintain a kernel build without
debuggin stuff enabled.
