Hi guys,

Shall we should modify '-g' to '-g3' to have gcc save the macro info? So when we install *-debuginfo packages, we can look up a macro definition, just like we can look up a function definition.

The gdb info says,

   GDB knows about preprocessor macros and can show you their expansion
(*note Macros::).  Most compilers do not include information about
preprocessor macros in the debugging information if you specify the
`-g' flag alone.  Version 3.1 and later of GCC, the GNU C compiler,
provides macro information if you are using the DWARF debugging format,
and specify the option `-g3'.


Thanks,
xning
