I posted a question a while ago regarding the way of debugging /sbin/init . I managed to do it by adding -ggdb to CFLAGS temporarily (as well as the nostrip feature).

 however, I found the source from /usr/portage/distfiles does not match the running instance, then I realized that the running executable is compiled from patched or altered version of source files. Is there a way to get the matching source?  if there exists a solution, it might be applied to all applications under gentoo that to be debugged, i think..

tks
