These are found two in a row. The name field of the first N_SO
contains the path to the source file. The name field of the second
N_SO contains the terminal name of the source file itself.
These are found two in a row. The name field of the first N_SO contains
the directory that the source file is relative to. The name field of
the second N_SO contains the name of the source file itself.
Only some compilers (e.g. gcc2, Sun cc) include the directory; this
symbol can be distinguished by the fact that it ends in a slash.
According to a comment in GDB's partial-stab.h, other compilers
(especially unnamed C++ compilers) put out useless N_SO's for
nonexistent source files (after the N_SO for the real source file).
