  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This doesn't look right: it should have told ``with DWARF 2 debugging
format''.  That's what the -gdwarf-2 switch is about.  I wonder what
the heck is going on here.

Can you please add -v to the compilation command line, like this:

  gcc -v -gdwarf-2 -g3 hello.c -o hello

and post here everything that is displayed by the compiler?
