I'm okay with having such an option off by default, but I > was asking to display a file name if the option is ON. I'm confused too - what option? I think making the "no debugging symbols" message always include filenames would be a useful improvement; no need of an option there. I don't think that displaying the message for shared libraries is particularly useful. Maybe for "set verbose" though? ("help set verbose" is really uninformative.) -- Daniel Jacobowitz CodeSourcery
