Yes, I see it. This file could also be debuglink, but that is not guaranteed.

I would propose to look in symsrc_filename for .debug_frame. If its not there,
we could still take a look into debuglink as a last resort.

What I wonder, would it be fine in such a case to store debuglink to symsrc, if
its already set? Though, this case is somewhat unlikely, but not entirely impossible
