What I observe with it: $ make gcc-4.8 -gdwarf-2 -g3 -O0 -DPRECOMP -o pc1.h.gch -c pc1.h gcc-4.8 -gdwarf-2 -g3 -O0 -DPRECOMP -o x m.c nm -C x | grep main U __libc_start_main 0000000000400560 T main addr2line -e x $(nm -C x | grep ' main$' | awk '{print $1}') /usr/include/stdio.h:947 What I would have expected: Have addr2line return m.c:3. Additional information: I do get addr2line to output "m.c:3" if I include "pc1.h" instead of "pc.h" from m.c. So this problem seems to be related with headers including (precompiled) headers. In fact, gcc-4.7.2 even ignored pc1.h.gch (itself a bug, or a non-implemented feature) if m.c includes pc.h, which means I don't get wrong line numbers on gcc-4.7. The outputting of wrong line numbers also occurs if compiled as C++ code.
