           Summary: "Dwarf Error: bad offset" when compiling with
                    debugging symbols (-g)
           Product: tools
           Version: 2.7
          Platform: PC

          Priority: P

Compiling this code

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main()
{
 printf("Hello world!\n");
 return 0;
}

with these commands
llvm-gcc.exe -Wall  -g <a_dir>\main.c -o <a_dir>\main.o
llvm-g++.exe -o <a_dir>\main.exe <a_dir>\main.o    

on a Windows XP, generates a good executable that I am able to run without any
problem.
However I cannot debug it, and when I run this command
gdb main.exe
with a GNU gdb 7.1 I get this complain from gdb
....
This GDB was configured as "mingw32".
...
Reading symbols from <a_dir>/main.exe...Dwarf Error: bad offset (0x409000) in
compilation unit header (offset 0x0 + 6) [in module <a_dir>/firts.exe]

Please note, to keep this report more readable I replaced actual directories
with <a_dir>.
