So how does llvm.dbg.stoppoint work?
Or does it? I can't seem to get anywhere with it.
And how do the VMKit people support line number info for the JVM?

I really need to get the machine addresses of particular points in the 
code, and I don't want to have to hack the x86 machine code emitter
or introduce my own intrinsics.
