I thought I'd mention that I emailed Caroline Tice about the use of
location lists in her research. She never used them for global variables,
which is where the problem I described here exists.
So, no help from that quarter, unfortunately.
BTW, I asked at the meeting on Tuesday, but I'll ask again for the whole
readership of this list: Has anyone implemented location list support in
DWARF2? In particular, for global variables?
