Sure, but there is no .loc in there! In fact, it's gas that is quite
sneaky here.
/* If there is no line information and no non-empty .debug_info
section, or if there is both a non-empty .debug_info and a non-empty
.debug_line, then we do nothing. */
So its the presence of some .section .debug_info content (even without any
.file, let alone .loc) that makes it emit the .debug_line header.
If there is a bug here, it's a gas bug.
