Hi!

The LTO debug changes create a DW_TAG_subprogram in main in one spot and
a small DW_TAG_subprogram that has DW_AT_abstract_origin to that +
DW_AT_ranges when doing hot/cold partitioning.  Unfortunately, it seems GDB
in that case doesn't read the DIE in the initial debug info read, as
read_partial_die only handles DW_AT_{low,high}_pc.

The following patch is an ugly workaround for that, I hope most of
real-world programs don't have most of the performance sensitive code
directly in main and so disabling hot/cold partitioning for main if in lto
might be acceptable.

Bootstrapped/regtested on x86_64-linux and i686-linux, fixes:

Ok for trunk?

OK. 

Hopefully this can be fixed in gdb for the upcoming release.
