This isn't safe; there might not be a filename. Aren't we getting
canonicalized to file.m:-[AClass foo] already?
build_canonical_line_spec should do it.

A harder version of this problem will come up if you have a
non-debuggable symbol named foo. We won't have a filename to put
in front of it. So how do we know it's already been canonicalized?
This is sort of like what the Apple patch did in the audit trail.
