Not at all.

Without this patch, -g changes the generated code quite often.

http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2007-10/msg00698.html explains why
the patch is different from one that had been posted and discussed
before (i.e., why the *earlier* patch was wrong)


On top of this, I've just found another case in which -g changes the
generated code, at least in the vta branch: compiling sysdep.c in
ada/rts.  The strings used to initialize the file open mode global
pointer variables are emitted with -g but not without it, at least in
the vta branch.  I don't see how this could possibly be caused by the
vta changes, but I haven't looked into it any further.
