It depends what version of binutils you've got installed.  At least one
of HJ's "Linux binutils" releases does this, but it's actually even
more wrong to point multiple copies of the debug information at
the same code address; you can get very confusing mismatches if they
were e.g. compiled by different compilers.

Thanks for the revised patch; it looks great.
