Vulkan, Linux: Process attaching fails when shader is compiled with debug information

Developer Tools Nsight Graphics
1

I’m attempting to get source correlation to work with Nsight graphics between GLSL and SPIR-V. I’m hitting a problem, where if I enable debugging information output from glslangValidator, Nsight graphics is no longer able to successfully attach to my program: it reports that my program terminates pretty much immediately (I assume during vulkan pipeline creation). Everything (except source correlation obviously), works fine with debugging information disabled.

If it would be helpful, I could provide (privately) the SPIR-V shader that causes the problem.
