That's pretty much orthogonal, though. We're talking about the case of a
decorator which returns the original function object (and therefore
doesn't change co_firstlineno).

Anyway, when co_firstlineno is used for ordering purposes, it doesn't
matter whether some values are offset by one when a decorator is
applied.
