You're right, nss-mdns doesn't have a debugging symbols package yet.
This is harmless, unless the bug you are investigating involves
nss-mdns itself.

If none of the stack frames (entries in the backtrace) involve functions
in the nss-mdns modules, then it is safe to ignore this.

If you're investigating a crash that *does* involve nss-mdns,
you'll need to rebuild it with DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS="nostrip noopt"
as described on <http://wiki.debian.org/HowToGetABacktrace>.
