Dumb question: Have you looked to see if mem2reg is destroying (or not 
maintaining) the debug information of interest (or put another way, was 
the variable gid promoted to an LLVM register and therefore had its 
debug information destroyed)?

I haven't used LLVM's new debug facilities, so my knowledge is out of 
date, but I think optimizations are still permitted to remove debug info.
