Indeed, and using debug_info on sites where 
the source code is not available is ... non-trivial.

I was just replying to the observation that 
record info were not available in the .beam
file. Under certain circumstances, they can be.

The debug_info can also be encrypted, and 
decrypted on the fly. This can be used e.g.
to be able to include debug_info
and leave it throughout the testing. Then you 
can release the beam code unchanged but without 
the key that makes the debug info accessible.
