[llvm-dev] Is it possible to generate the IR representation with the original macro information?

-g -fdebug-macro will include macro info in the debug info in the IR. It
doesn't track which bits of IR were expanded from macros (anymore than the
source locations do without -fdebug-macro) - just provides the macro text
so, for instance, debugger users can use the macros in expresions.
