Thanks for your reply, great!
To make tracking the progress easier can I open a bug report on launchpad (and 
if yes, against what component)?

Where can I find the build scripts, to have a rough look myself if I have time?
Given that the kernel builds include timestamps purging the debug symbols 
shouldn't be that hard if the follow the name-dbg(sym) scheme , should it?
