No.  A number of embedded targets _do_ have code at PC=0 - including
some of the simulator targets (I think), and Harvard architecture
processors.  Emitting garbage line info that says code is there is a
bug in the debug info producers, not the consumer.

GDB already has several hacks to ignore info at 0.  I strongly oppose
adding more; as GNU ld gets better at producing correct info the
existing ones should be removed.
