GDB finds the file in dup/. But in our case, we cannot touch the file
in the original location, since the testsuite engine needs it for the
next testing batch. Building in a different location is not an option
either because we want to only recompile the files we touched (and
their dependencies). So basically, at this time, it appears that we're
stuck.
