Comparing binaries in Source Code space

I don't know a simple procedure, but the following might work:

1. Use objdump -h to determine the file offsets of each section.
2. Check whether it really is in a code section. If not, you may need
   to reconsider your analysis so far.
3. Translate the file offset to a VMA offset.
4. Use objdump --disassemble to display all code sections in
   disassembly, and look for the VMA offset.

Hope this helps,
Martin
