GDB also doesn't descend into the outer function's DIEs when
scanning the DWARF, because this is deemed a bad tradeoff: it
is expensive and would only be useful for supporting a relatively
obscure GNU C extension. (GDB does do this for Ada, though, because
this is a standard construct there...)
One idea would be to name these in an index. Our current plan is here:
