If you do 

zebedee:~ $ eu-readelf -n /usr/bin/gcc                      

Note section [ 2] '.note.ABI-tag' of 32 bytes at offset 0x21c:
  Owner          Data size  Type
  GNU                   16  VERSION
    OS: Linux, ABI: 2.6.18

Note section [ 3] '.note.gnu.build-id' of 36 bytes at offset 0x23c:
  Owner          Data size  Type
  GNU                   20  GNU_BUILD_ID
    Build ID: 7773029d7a9ce9926b4a65bc47b0b57cd271c90b

you'll see the Build ID.

Now look in

zebedee:~ $ ls -l /usr/lib/debug/.build-id/77/73029d7a9ce9926b4a65bc47b0b57cd271c90b.debug
