Not an explicit definition. But as Ignacio pointed out, the manual does say that line number info specifically is omitted. And as Luiz pointed out, at least some of the time the line number appears to be included. If this is an implementation detail, it should probably be called out as such, especially when the manual at least strongly implies that the info won't be included.
