I don't actually understand this (yet), as I don't know why the debugger would need the debug info to be loaded into the inferior's memory; it's not like the .debug_loc section gets allocated either. However I'm perfectly able to go ahead and test a patch without fully understanding that :) if you think just giving up on tracking string values is the way to go. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=41404
