I have two things to say about this message.

First, this message is not appropriate for the mailing list
gcc@gcc.gnu.org, which is for discussion related to the development of
GCC.  The message would be appropriate on the mailing list
gcc-help@gcc.gnu.org.  Please take any followups to gcc-help.  Thanks.

Second, this is fixed by using DWARF 4, which I think is the default in
GCC 4.7.
