[PATCH] Fix handling of #include files during prologue skipping


In symtab.c:skip_prologue_using_sal, the code goes through the SAL markers 
starting from the beginning of the function, and checks for markers with the 
same (or increasing line numbers).?The idea behind this is that if one gets 
decreasing line numbers, than one probably have the case where the optimizer 
scheduled code from later in the function into the prologue.

However, the problem was that this code was simply comparing the line
*numbers* -- even if they refered to a different file! That's why the
presence of the comment makes a difference, because it makes the line
number in t.c larger (or smaller) than the line number in t.h.

This patch simply considers a change in file equivalent to an
increasing line number.

Before the fix:

$ gdb prologue-include
[snip]
(gdb) break main
Breakpoint 1 at 0x10000594: file prologue-include.h, line 2.

After the fix:
$ gdb prologue-include
[snip]
(gdb) break main
Breakpoint 1 at 0x1000058c: file prologue-include.h, line 1.


No regressions detected on PPC32, PPC64, and AMD64.

Regards,
Tiago Daitx
