Obviously GCC is wrong. Just the name is not useful. What do we want it to do, David?

That's parallel to the DWARF-2 approach. > Kevin B had a similar issue in May 2002: > > http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2002-11/msg01661.html Wrong URL, that's Daniel in November... -- Daniel Jacobowitz MontaVista Software Debian GNU/Linux Developer
