Fix it!

This is not quite right, the drmingw we were using was a custom fork so we have to fix the debug symbols to exist in a place that gcc expects to be.

Status:: Discarded
Change Summary:: We should do this for pidgin3, but this is a stupid amount of work for pidgin2 and it's been an issue for a long time and only one user has found it, so we're going to punt on this for now.
