What to do when no debug info?

[Keith Seitz <keiths@cygnus.com>]

Hi,

For a long, long time now, Insight has, for historical reasons, disallowed
the debugging of executables with no debug information when opened with
the File->Open... menu.

Anyone see any reason whatsoever that this restriction shouldn't be nuked?
Keith
