20 /* New stab from Solaris 2. This uses an n_type of 0, which in a.out files
21 overlaps the N_UNDF used for ordinary symbols. In ELF files, the
22 debug information is in a different file section, so there is no conflict.
23 This symbol's n_value gives the size of the string section associated
24 with this file. The symbol's n_strx (relative to the just-updated
25 string section start address) gives the name of the source file,
26 e.g. "foo.c", without any path information. The symbol's n_desc gives
27 the count of upcoming symbols associated with this file (not including
28 this one). */
