How do I compile NetBSD kernel and userland with full debugging symbols

Question

I am compiling NetBSD kernel and userland for ARM in NetBSD5.1

Libraries generated are not with debugging symbols. Is there any kernel which I can use to enable debugging for userland?

For e.g. libc.so.12 is stripped. I want unstripped with full debugging symbols

Why an out of date version of NetBSD? The current release version is 7.0, and the oldest supported release is 6.1. — Eric Schnoebelen, Feb 13 '16 at 18:22

To build with debugging symbols, add -VMKDEBUG=yes and -VMKDEBUGLIB=yes to your build.sh command line.

See share/mk/bsd.README for all the available build flags.
