Re: [RFC/RFA?] Should break FILE:LINENO skip prologue?

Yay! :). I am actually very grateful to everyone who participated
in the discussion.

Andreas, Eli, have your concerns been answered too? Just to recap,
the proposal is the following. Considering the following code:

   1.  int
   2.  my_procedure (...)
   3.  {
   4.    int local1 = ...;
   5.    int local2 = ...;
   6.    ...

The idea is that inserting a breakpoint on line 2 or 3 would be
equivalent to breaking on "my_procedure", which means that the
actual location will be line 4 (before the locals assignment
take place).

Thanks,

Joel
