target=native, host=i686-pc-linux-gnu%rh-7.2, gdb=HEAD%20020404, gcc=2.95.3, goption=-gdwarf-2
>Description:
gdb improved significantly from 2002-03-31 in its handling of gcc v2 dwarf line numbers.  However, in some cases, gdb prints degraded information.

This is a regression versus 5.1.1.

>From 2002-03-31 gdb.log:

  Breakpoint 4, marker1 () at /berman/fsf/_today_/source/gdb/HEAD/src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/break.c:48^M
  48      int marker1 () { return (0); }^M
  (gdb) PASS: gdb.base/condbreak.exp: run until breakpoint at marker1

>From 2002-04-04 gdb.log

  Breakpoint 4, 0x08048493 in marker1 () at /berman/fsf/_today_/source/gdb/HEAD/src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/break.c:48^M
  48      int marker1 () { return (0); }^M
  (gdb) XFAIL: gdb.base/condbreak.exp: run until breakpoint at marker1

It's a bug to print the source address on an exact line match.  See the extensive comments in gdb.base/condbreak.exp.

This happens in gdb.base/condbreak.exp and gdb.base/ena-dis-br.exp.

There is probably an issue with the marker1() function being one line long.

>How-To-Repeat:
Run gdb.base/condbreak.exp and gdb.base/ena-dis-br.exp on gdb HEAD with gcc 2.95.3 -gdwarf-2.
