Ray,
You can get line numbers if you edit the frysk/common/Makefile.rules and
change the 2 lines that have "demangle=false" to "demangle=true". But,
this may not always work as Tom points out in his reply, sometimes
exceptions may be lost/swallowed. I have only had a couple of problems
with this in my few years of debugging frysk problems though.
