Haven't been able to go through the whole documentation, so let me ask 
you this simple question:

Does this library allow me to annotate assembly with files and line 
numbers if debug information is present in a relatively efficient way?

I've had to reimplement that kind of thing in the past because solutions 
like calling addr2line for every address weren't fast enough.
