[PATCH 2/5] powerpc64-aix processing xlC generated line table


powerpc-ibm-aix: Fix line number handling for xlc compiled binaries.

xlc compiled binaries have a line table which is different from gcc
compiled ones.
It does not contain 1 extra entry which indicates the function start PC.

Because of this, listing functions, eg: 'list main' or
breaking at functions, eg: 'break function1' give wrong line numbers.

To fix this, we check if the function entry point has an entry in the
line table (in case of gcc, it does). If it does not have this entry, then
we retain
the function entry lines marked as line number equal to 0 and assign the
line number
equal to the succeeding line table entry.
---

ChangeLog :-
* xcoffread.c (process_linenos): Add fix to correctly process linenos in
case of xlc compiled binaries.
