     This file is owned by GCC (see the MAINTAINERS file at the top of
     binutils-gdb).  To get a modification in it, you would need to provide a
     patch to gcc, then we can import the change in binutils-gdb.
     
     I am not too sure who is responsible for allocating these values, as they
     are not from the DWARF standard.  At the very least, there should be a
     comment to say what architecture uses this non-standard value.  Is there
     also a gcc port you are planning to upstream, that would use this value?

I might think about a gcc port when Gdb and Binutils are robust for this
arch.   But I haven't started any work on that so far.
