naive GDB patch

GDB HEAD
gcc-4.6.0-0.3.fc15.x86_64
->
`break internal_error' (that is the function GDB) is never hit.

./gdb -nx ./gdb -ex 'b internal_error' -ex 'disass internal_error'
Breakpoint 1 at 0x48f3cd: file utils.c, line 1242.

.debug_line is weird

Fixed by the naive attached GDB patch but it has heavy regressions.
Maybe GCC should be fixed?
There is still missing the prologue end marker.
