My original trying was just added them here, but the variable parsing
at here is too early, the ${BPN}, ${B} and {S} was assigned with
'defaultpkgname' at this time. Which we have:
...

tmp/work/core2-64-poky-linux/defaultpkgname/1.0-r0/defaultpkgname-1.0=
/usr/src/defaultpkgname

With searching the manual, I could not find a gcc option to
do the path substitution on switches in debugging information.

Maybe we could add a patch for gcc to do this. I could try in V2
if there is no side effect.

Compile with '-fdebug-prefix-map':
objdump -g packages-split/lib32-glibc-dev/usr/lib/gcrt1.o
...
| <0><5e>: Abbrev Number: 1 (DW_TAG_compile_unit)
|    <5f>   DW_AT_producer    : (indirect string, offset: 0xbb): GNU C99 5.3.0 -m32
-march=core2 -mtune=core2 -msse3 -mfpmath=sse -mpreferred-stack-boundary=4 -g -O2
-std=gnu99 -fgnu89-inline -fdebug-prefix-map=/buildarea/raid0/hjia/build-20160119-
yocto-buildpath/tmp/work/core2-32-pokymllib32-linux/lib32-glibc/2.22-r0/git=/usr/src/glibc
-feliminate-unused-debug-types -fmerge-all-constants -frounding-math -ftls-model=initial-exec

When we use '-fdebug-prefix-map', the TMPDIR was added to switches. Although
remove the switches is to avoid buildpath QA check, the side effect is 
the other
part of compile options have also been removed.

If we need to leave the switches in, I think we could tweak the 
buildpath QA check,
which allows TMPDIR in '-fdebug-prefix-map=' without warning. I think I 
should
send a V2 to do this for discussion.

Solution1: do some path substitutions on the switches
Solution2: tweak buildpath QA check to allow TMPDIR in '-fdebug-prefix-map='

I will try them in V2.
