I do not think server-side retrace is feasible without split 
debuginfo packages. If you need to rebuild the package to get debugging 
information, as is currently the case on Arch, you have no way to ensure 
that the rebuild will use the exact same addresses as the version that 
produced the backtrace.

Arch needs to provide split debuginfo like basically all other 
major distributions. There is no way around it.
