You probably mean hildon-status-menu because hildon-desktop does not 
have any plugins.

My memory is failing me, but I think that you need to use dsmetool (or 
similar) to stop the hildon-status-menu first (so that it's not 
automatically restarted), and then install the debug symbols and run 
"gdb hildon-status-menu" in ssh session.
