  imacros command line breaks debugging information

Bug description:
  Hello,

    Currently, the gcc ubuntu package has a bug that comes from
  upstream:

  http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=57653

  
    The effect of the bug is if one compiles a file with the option -imacros,
  the filename and all useful debugging information disappears. Here is a
  simple example of that:

  imacros-test$ cat somefile.c
  #warning some warning
  imacros-test$ cat macros.h
  #define SOME_MACRO
  imacros-test$ gcc -c somefile.c
  somefile.c:1:2: warning: #warning some warning [-Wcpp]
   #warning some warning
    ^
  imacros-test$ gcc -c somefile.c -imacros macros.h
  <command-line>:1:2: warning: #warning some warning [-Wcpp]

  
    This also affects the debugging information embedded within the files,
  rendering debugging pretty useless.

    While I am aware this is a bug from upstream, it's been sitting there
  for a while with a simple patch. It'd be nice to apply that patch on the
  ubuntu package in the meantime.

  
    Thanks!
