Thanks a lot! The web page is an interesing read. 

However, it seems to me that the stabs format is not exactly what I was
searching for. It describes debug information plus data flow from the compiler
through the assembler and linker to the executable, and it covers features for
several different source languages. While it is quite a capable format, it
seems to be overkill for a small compiler like cc65, especially since source
debuggers are quite rare (unknown?) for this platform. Anyway, I will have a
thoroughful look at it. I'm pretty sure that I can learn something.
