Oh! Well that's new to me. Probably because I don't use AVR Studio....

FYI, Debugging in AVR Studio using COFF files are now deprecated. AVR 
Studio 4.10 has a new ELF/DWARF2 parser (in beta) that can be used to 
debug ELF files (normally generated by GCC) that contain DWARF2 
debugging info. Use the latest WinAVR to build an ELF file with DWARF2 
debugging info (it normally generates "stabs" debugging info). See the 
WinAVR README for more information.
