--- Comment #1 from RazvanN <razvan.nitu1305 at gmail.com> ---
I don't think .di files are meant for that purpose. Header files should
generally be used by the compiler to speed up the build process. As a
consequence I don't see any reason why comments or line directives should be
included.

Even if we were to implement this enhancement request, we would probably need
to another cli switch (like -Hv) and in my opinion that is not worth it.

Another reason to close this is the fact that nobody else has requested this
feature in the last 7 years.

I am going to close this as WONTFIX, however, feel free to reopen if you
disagree with my assessment.
