You're right, I forgot to clarify that point.

gb.debug and gb.eval should go inside gambas2-runtime, because they can be 
loaded by the interpreter at any momemnt, when it needs it.

But gb.vb, gb.compress and gb.db should have their own packages, because they 
will be added as package dependencies by the IDE package maker.
