It seems to be the right solution, but:

I'm afraid that this break the stabs (and maybe other) cases, seems here is
a workaround on a other place.

While looking at the problem by myself, I found that the 
_bfd_stab_section_find_nearest_line correct the offset by itself.

Since I don't know enought about dwarf, stabs bfd, I didn't find 
a solution which don't break things.
