IMO the correct fix would in field insertion to return one of three values:
- success (didn't exist before)
- did exist before
- couldn't add
(instead of the current success/failure mode)
so that every debug info parser can pick what it wants
my main objection here is that you're making modifications for something 
you don't use (in the patch you sent). For readability and acceptance of 
patches it's better to only include it if you make use of it.

A+
