To support that, we need to extend the PCH format to preserve this information. If you believe this feature is important, I will open a bugzilla ticket and we can handle it separately.


That would be a good idea and important to fix. I don't think we want the the generated code (or the debug info for that matter) to change just because the user decides to switch to PCH. Ideally turning on PCH should be transparent.

I have one final question: What's the impact of this change on, e.g., building clang?

- How much does the build directory grow?
- Is there any noticeable compile time regression?

Alternatively, you may be able to use #line to force an easily recognizable line number (unless that messes with the macro debug info, or you can use FileCheck's [[@LINE-offset]] feature.
