DSFs have image file format, which is an unstructured (binary) file -
disk blocks aka fixed size records of 512 bytes. They have an image
header, which points to the debug information. STB files have object
file format, which is an record structured (binary) file.
Reading with alpha_vms_object_p seems OK for the STB files but looks
strange for the DSFs.
