lineinfo unit

The lineinfo provides a routine that reads the debug information of an executable (if any exists) and returns source code information about this address. It works with Stabs debug information. Note that this unit is not thread-safe, and that its behaviour is undefined if multiple threads try to write a backtrace at the same time.

For DWARF debug information, the lnfodwrf unit must be used.
