There are problems when using current STABS debug format for 64 bit

Why are you considering extending STABS at this point?
STABS support might very well be dropped altogether from GCC 4.9 or the next
release, people just should use DWARF[234] everywhere.
I find stabs is still helpful when you try to inspect the assembly output
by hand (or more precisely, by visual inspection in a text editor / pager).
