Hmm... your patch essentially forbids finding any Dwarf2 debugging
info. Doesn't feel like a valid way of fixing this, to me.

It might be better to first check out what type of debugging info the
program actually does contain, or what type of debugging info the
binutils expect to find. I.e., do you get linenumbers in output if you:

*) compile and link with -gstabs
*) compile and link with -gcoff
*) compile and link with -gdwarf-2

?
