Line number information is recorded in the binary as well.  So:

 > gdb emacs.exe
 (gdb) break w32notify.c:206
 (gdb) r

should set you up.  If the breakpoint breaks, GDB will complain that
sources are not available, so it cannot display the source.  But it
doesn't matter, since all I'm interested in is whether it breaks and
if so, what do we get in io_info->hEvent object.
