Fixed it by creating two build modes (Debug and Release) on suggestion from
Lazarus itself in the Release dialog from Project Options.

Result:
When I use Release the symbols are not added and when using Debug, then the
symbols are added *and* the executable name is changed to originalname.dbg.
This is of course on Linux, what happens on Windows I don't know.
originalname.exe.dbg would not work of course...
