Couple of small objective-c patches to fix couple of problems.
fsf-4327263.txt removes file name from module descriptor perceived
as a potential security leak (our runtime guys have confirmed that
it has no implications). fsf-4156731.txt fixes an ICE when issuing
warning.
Mike Stump has approved these two patches.
If there are no implications, why remove a useful piece of
information? Maybe you could write "" if -g is not on?
How is this perceived as a security risk?
Because it also includes the full path name to the source file which
cannot be stripped out. We have had several complaints on this.
