I think we are talking at cross-purposes here. You are talking about
the debugger, I am talking about the whole package. If 3.4 is best not
used on arm64, then why are we building it at all on this
arch. Because cross-compilers (i.e used of 3.4 but other back-ends)?
Because build-deps?

Similar questions for 3.3.
