Hmm, interesting idea. I thought of it, but the tests I was looking at all used assembler to generate the debug sections, so it wasn't feasible. But I'm guessing other tests use an actual compiler and linker. Now that I've got gold outputting the new format (just submitted to binutils this morning), I can play around with this. I don't think it needs to hold up consideration of this patch, though. craig
