I applied your patch to the latest from CVS this morning and it does not 
fix the problem for me on 64-bit binaries.

It appears that my version of Forte is using different names for the 
STABS debugging sections than expected by 
_bfd_stab_section_find_nearest_line.  That functions looks for .stab and 
.stabstr, and if not found, assumes that the object contains no 
debugging info and exits.

Forte generates the following STABS sections in my object:

6 .stab.index   00000114 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 000025b0 2**2
                 CONTENTS, READONLY, DEBUGGING
7 .stab.indexstr 00000320 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 000026c4 2**0
                 CONTENTS, READONLY, DEBUGGING
8 .stab.excl    0000765c 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 000029e4 2**2
                 CONTENTS, READONLY, DEBUGGING
9 .stab.exclstr 0001bfa1 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000a040 2**0
                 CONTENTS, READONLY, DEBUGGING
