Re: dwarf2-frame.c and sym_private


   Date: Sun, 22 Jun 2003 12:52:35 -0400
   From: Daniel Jacobowitz <drow@mvista.com>

   The dwarf2-frame code blithely assumes that objfile->sym_private is
   always an FDE description.  But nothing stops the file from having
   non-DWARF-2 debugging information, or no debugging information at
   all... would you mind if I switched it to use a new dwarf2-specific
   member of the objfile structure instead?

I wouldn't mind, although I'm not sure whether adding debug
format-specific members to the objfile structure is the right
approach.  Assuming that an object file won't contain unwind info in
different formats, would adding a member for unwind info to the
objfile structure be an option.
