[Soot-list] Retaining variable names from Java to Jimple

[Eric Bodden]

Hi Prithvi.

Actually this option should just work. Could it be the case that you
are producing Jimple from bytecode? If you are, then you have to make
sure that the bytecode has debug symbols (although most compilers
insert these symbols by default nowadays). Otherwise, please tell us
more about how you use the option.
