Yeah, I appreciate the desire, but it doesn't seem especially burdensome to 
support (since we'll still have support for the SHF_COMPRESSED style and it's 
not a lot of code on top of that to support the zdebug style) so I don't see as 
much value in making these changes, but that's OK.

Oh, one thing: would probably be good to make two separate commits, one for -gz 
and one for the --compress-debug-sections
