Sorry, the FAQ fails to tell that you need to use -g as well:

  gcc -c -g -Wa,-a,-ad [other GCC options] foo.c > foo.lst

Without -g, the assembler won't have enough info to output the source
lines.

I will fix that in the next release of the FAQ.

(In general, whenever you have problems like that, it is advisable to
look up the relevant switches in the docs.  In this case, the node in
the Gas manual ("info as") which describes the -a switch tells you
that -g is required.)
