The line numbers are influenced by the gcc version on the host used

the code. Remove these to ensure the shipped source code is the
same.
Please send this paatch to gcc mailing lists for review, I am not
sure if this will cause regressions for plugin writers since it does
not seem simple debug info that it is adding, and external plugins
might rely on this information. While I understand it might solve
our usecaase its a kind of patch that I worry about to carry out of
tree.
I very much doubt upstream are going to accept anything like it
unfortunately. Whilst much of the information is useful to plugins, I'm
struggling to see how/why they'd use line numbers outside of debug
information so I've assumed so far they're just that - for debug. DO
you know of it being used in other ways?
I am not looking for them to integrate it as it is, but to get reviews
if this is something we are not setting ourselves for more trouble by
doing this. Since lot of plugin writers will be there and can give
useful feedback.
Cheers,
Richard
