How can I instruct GC to remove intermediate comment lines?

before
  /* Line: 7         : MOVE               : /home/olegs/projects/gnucobol-debug/test/resources/hello.cbl */
  cob_set_location (st_1, 7, NULL, NULL, st_5);
  memcpy (b_6, "World", 5);
  
now
  /* Line: 7         : MOVE               : /home/olegs/projects/gnucobol-debug/test/resources/hello.cbl */
#line 7 "/home/olegs/projects/gnucobol-debug/test/resources/hello.cbl"
  cob_trace_stmt (st_2);
#line 116 "hello.c"
  memcpy (b_8, "World", 5);
