This means that GDB found the symbol you requested, at some address, X,
and associated with file:file F:L. Then, we find all addresses {Y} corresponding
to F:L. The assert means that X does not belong to the set of addresses {Y}.
This should not happen generally -- do you have a small reproducible example?
