How do you create the separate debug info ELF file? Note that the problematic
symbol is in the separate binary:

$ gcc foo.c -O2 -g -flto -shared -o libfoo.so
$ objcopy --only-keep-debug  libfoo.so debug.so
$ readelf -s --wide debug.so | grep foo.c
    60: 0000000000000067     0 NOTYPE  LOCAL  DEFAULT   25 foo.c.cf7807ca
