Yes, gdb supports several different debugging formats.  You did not say
what your compiler is.  If your compiler is gcc, then can specify
either "-gdwarf-2" or "-gstabs+" when you compile.  (There are other
formats but these two are the best supported).

"-gstabs+" has a limit of 2^16 = 65536 lines.  Try building your program
with "-gdwarf-2" and gdb ought to handle your 130,000 line file.
