Details

clang doesn't emit debug symbols for the std library by default, in order to see into types in std::* one needs to install those symbols. This was not the case with gcc. The following seemed to work on Ubuntu 19.04 apt install libstdc++X-Y-dbg. It doesn't seem sufficient for 20.10.

I was wrong about it working for 19.04. I can't remember what I did to get this working the first time. I am closing this for now.
