The previous revision (objfiles.c:1.2) fixed backtracing in the

absence of full debugging symbols for the kernel, but broke it for
application programs.  This commit disables that change except when
kernel debugging mode is in effect.

This needs to go into -2.2 as well, after a suitable burn-in period.
