[osg-submissions] [osg-users] INSTALL include pdb's

[James Killian]

Ah so that's why no one else has ran into this problem... We'll need to
refactor our work flow and support version numbers; thanks for the heads up.
Yes I'll still want to pursue moving the pdb files (eventually)  I have a
work-around at the moment.
