Not sure either. Perhaps it's just unspecified?

I'm OK with leaving the testcase untouched if we don't need to.
However, I think it's worth mentioning again what happens in
the Ada case:

    % gnatmake -g `pwd`/foo
    gcc -c -I/home/brobecke/toto/ -g -I- /home/brobecke/toto/foo.adb
    gnatbind -x foo.ali
    gnatlink foo.ali -g

Then inserting a breakpoint on procedure Foo:

    (gdb) b foo
    Breakpoint 1 at 0x401f0c: file /home/brobecke/toto/foo.adb, line 4.

In my opinion, the current behavior in that case is fine too.
