Moreover, if the debug information is included within the executable file
directly, there's probably no need to look for an external file, IMHO, so
if the proper link isn't available and we would want to support external
files anyway, the preference should be probably the other way round (first
paramstr(0), then paramstr(0) with extension changed to .dbg or something
like that).
