Unfortunately it appears that that message is an incomplete bug report
- it seems to rely upon text in previous messages in other mailing
lists.
Please could you provide a (repeat) explanation of the bug ?
FWIW I tried compiling the test case attached to the above message
using a version of g++ built from today's sources and running on an
x86 linux box, and then I used three different versions of readelf to
try to get different results - I failed - all three produced the same
output:
[snip]
Line Number Statements:
Extended opcode 2: set Address to 0x804853a
Advance Line by 18 to 19
Copy
Special opcode 48: advance Address by 3 to 0x804853d and Line by 1 to 20
Special opcode 20: advance Address by 1 to 0x804853e and Line by 1 to 21
Advance PC by 1 to 804853f
Extended opcode 1: End of Sequence
[snip]
The three versions I built were from today's sources, the 2-14 branch
and the 2-13 branch.
Cheers
Nick
