It seems to me like this ought to be patch 1/n of a patch to produce PDB debug symbols. This isn't useless, as ld will create symbols for the mangled names even without the .debug$S and .debug$T sections being present. Sorry this didn't get resolved for gcc-13. The good news is I have committed your V2 patch into the trunk for gcc-14. FYI I've removed the stray obsolete @gol that broke building the docs. Thanks. I didn't realize those were obsolete. jeff
