your new beta version 0.9.5.91 seems to have the -g disabled....
BUT the way it worked in 0.9.5 might still be better than this. with cobc 0.9.5
the -g was passed on to the gcc and the linker. when i used gdb it had the
extra symbol info and line numbers. however, they referenced the name and line
numbers for the converted c as xxx.cob and not xxx.c (which is ok). the
top-level within gdb when using the list command did show the cobol src which
is, i think, what you were referring to that was "not fully implemented".
all in all, i think the 0.9.5 version -g is better than making us do multiple
steps (cobc, gcc).

Sorry, it was my misunderstanding. You cannot get your COBOL source
referenced from gdb, at least for now. Please compile the generated
C files with -g and trace the C file.
I will remove the -g option in the next version.
