Do you want this to be chrome_dll_initial.pdb as well?

[Roger McFarlane (Google), 2011/08/03 17:47:32]

No, I retained the original basenames for the files (chrome.dll and
chrome_dll.pdb) so that they would still match the expectations of all
downstream consumers.  The names of these things get baked into their dependents
(i.e., chrome_dll.lib knows to look for chrome.dll, which knows its pdb file is
chrome_dll.pdb).

[Roger McFarlane (Google), 2011/08/03 17:47:32]

Oops, that should be a double backslash between "initial" and "chrome.dll".
Python preserves the backslash for unrecognized escape sequences, so it works.

Will fix anyway.
