llvm dev - Sep 2006 - [LLVMdev] llvm debug information

hi, 
    According to the llvm docs, llvm will generate global variable information
such as
      llvm.dbg.global_variable.type
    which contains the line number and original name of global variables. But I
tried on llvm-1.8 with -g, no such debug intrinsic functions are dumped, I only
see some stoppoint, func.start. Are there any secrete options I should pass to
llvm-gcc?
    Thanks.

llvm-gcc3 has very primitive support for debug info.  Make sure you're 
using llvm-gcc4.
