--- Comment #31 from Ian Lance Taylor <ian at airs dot com> ---
> Why is it important to be able to map a file:line to a single PC?
The problem is that the Go code in the runtime/pprof package assumes that it
can take a single PC value and map that to a meaningful file/line. Which it
can, but with gccgo it loses inlining information.

Sorry, I misspoke. I meant signal trampoline--the code in the C library that
is invoked by the kernel--not signal handler.
