Hmmm... I've looked through the package. Is there supposed to be
a special compiled kernel with debug info built-in?
Seems almost like an SRPM instead of being an RPM...

no; it's the debuginfo strip-to-file'd. gdb and co know how to assemble
external debuginfo during work. the debuginfo rpms (not just the kernel
ones but all of them) are only the *extra* debuginfo, not the original
binaries. You can ONLY use them together with the full normal rpm.
