Topic: Missing frame symbols on transformed wasm32-unknown-unknown

I am attempting to display backtrace with files and line numbers on a trap with wasmtime using err.downcast_ref::<wasmtime::WasmBacktrace>().
When I compile a component with --target=wasm32-wasip2, I can do that without any issue.
However when I do the same with --target=wasm32-unknown-unknown and transform the core WASM module with wasm-tools 1.225.0, the FrameSymbols are empty for each FrameInfo. Is this a limitation of rustc or the transformation or am I doing something wrong?

What is this transform doing? If you're editing the code section of the module then all the offsets in dwarf debugging information will need to be updated, and wasm-tools doesn't do that for example.

I am running wasm-tools component new to turn it into a Component.

Ah in that case that should work fine, and the two targets should behave the same. Can you upload a reproduction?
