--- Comment #16 from Luis Machado <luis.machado at arm dot com> ---
Thanks for the additional information. I would've expected the 12.2-Rel1 tools
to contain patches to improve this situation on ld's side.

A see a few ways to improve this situation:

1 - Tools update, which may take a little while. Old tools will still be
broken.
2 - Build the elf without macro information. It may not work if you need to
debug macros.
3 - Teach gdb how to workaround these pathological cases for now (seems
simpler).
4 - Longer term, try to improve memory use for these expansions. It may be a
harder problem to deal with, so it could take some time.

I can raise this issue again on the gdb mailing list for discussion. Meanwhile,
can you do debugging with no macro information?

Simon, do you know if anything has been done with regards to these macro import
issues?
