Maybe this is obvious, but I haven't been able to see it.  I am running
gcc 2.1 on SCO UNIX R3.2v2.  I configured gcc with "i386-sco".

I have a program that reads a source file containing C statements and data
definitions in an unusual format, and spits C code.  I am using directives
like:

#line 1 "source.x"

in the output to get gcc to report errors in the user C code properly so
that the C language output of my program need not be examined or edited.
This works fine, and EMACS locates the correct lines in the original source
file, etc.  Now I want GDB to display source from the original input file
as well.  I can do this manually if I edit the '.file' statement in the .s
file that gcc -S produces, and then compile to object and link.  Does anyone
know how to tell gcc to do this automatically?
