[CMake] No debugging symbols found when using -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug

[Chuck Atkins]

Interesting.  It seems CMake is having trouble identifying GCC in 6.1.1.
Do you have a 5.x compiler available?  If so does it work with that?  That
would help narrow it down to a gcc6 issue vs something about how Manjaro
packages compilers.
