*** LOG addons.xpi: Ignoring file entry whose name is not a valid add-on ID: c:\verbosio\microxul\dist\app\extensions\dbgserver-27.0a2.en-US.xpi

A little debugging shows the extracted ID is dbgserver-27.0a2.en-US .

Fallen thinks it's an addons manager bug, which is why I've cc'd Unfocused.  But I think the extension filename itself is actually improper: typically, a XPI's filename matches the addon ID, and addon ID's are supposed to be a UUID or matching a (theoretical) e-mail address.
When renaming the XPI to remote-debugger@mozilla.org.xpi, it worked.
