Hi Krzesimir,

I think you are overcomplicating it. The original reporter complained
simply that there is an inconsistency between the first line and the
next ones when -fshow-column is enabled (which is now the default but
it wasn't some years ago). The following patch is sufficient to fix
this inconsistency:


You can test this by simply building gcc and using -fshow-column vs.
-fno-show-column. I think a testsuite testcase will be hard to build
because DejaGNU. It doesn't seem worth the effort for such a minor
issue. Given that you seem to have enough knowledge and ability to
modify GCC and submit good patches, it would be better to spend your
time on more important bugs.

For example, this one needs to be analyzed, we don't even know how it happens:
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=52998

Or this one, https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=45333
which I think is just a matter of adding (or factoring out) some of
the logic from maybe_unwind_expanded_macro_loc() and use it in various
places in cp/error.c (print_instantiation_*).

If you are not motivated by those, I can offer more suggestions...

Cheers,

Manuel.
