  Well this probably mean the fix made for the normal reader didn't work
for the walker. I find that surprizing but possible. Can you bugzilla with
a small example reproducing the problem (python or C)

  Possible too, line number are stored in various places, but in both case 
I would expect the nearest element to hold the line number. Same thing 
please bugzilla with an example.
