The debug symbols (kernel and user space) would be handy as it would allow us to dig down into the source code views, and additionally we could then also use the DS-5 debugger to debug.
It will be good to have the kernel headers so that we could rebuild the gator driver. (handy as DS-5 and Linaro releases are not guaranteed to be in sync)
Best regards, Lukas

+Robert Kaye who had actually asked for the debug symbols .
I don't think we need the debug symbols. Loading the libraries from the system tar ball was sufficient for me to profile using ds-5 .Alternately if we build a "userdebug" buildtype image instead of "eng" we need not load the libraries also for profiling using DS-5 .The functions are resolved by DS-5 from the debug build.

We recently had a few requests to ship symbols with our prebuilt Android builds, like:
https://android-build.linaro.org/builds/~linaro-android/panda-ics-gcc47-tilt...https://android-build.linaro.org/builds/%7Elinaro-android/panda-ics-gcc47-tilt-tracking-blob/
...see build artifacts:
target/product/pandaboard/system.tar.bz2 target/product/pandaboard/boot.tar.bz2 target/product/pandaboard/userdata.tar.bz2
We could simply tar up the out/ directory of the build and post that as well, but I thought we may want to do something a little different. Since the intended target is to allow DS-5 to resolve symbols on prebuilt Android builds is there a better way to post this so that things "just work."
Let me involve two more people to the discussion - Bernie and Scott. Both are vitally interested in the subject :-)
... and Lukas as well.
