<p>The Module Info Stream (henceforth referred to as the Modi stream) contains
information about a single module (object file, import library, etc that
contributes to the binary this PDB contains debug information about. There
is one modi stream for each module, and the mapping between modi stream index
and module is contained in the <a class="reference internal" href="DbiStream.html"><span class="doc">DBI Stream</span></a>. The modi stream
for a single module contains line information for the compiland, as well as
all CodeView information for the symbols defined in the compiland. Finally,
there is a “global refs” substream which is not well understood.</p>

meaning that this module has C13 line information (as opposed to C11 line
information). A corollary of this is that we expect to only ever see
C13 line info, and that we do not understand the format of C11 line info.</p></li>

C11 line info is not understood and we assume all line in modern PDBs
to be in C13 format.</p></li>
