I don't want to stand in the way of solving the Java and Fortran "find
the main program" problems, but when you look at the description of
DW_AT_calling_convention, it seems to me like that attribute is more
concerned with telling you how to assemble arguments to pass to the
function, and not so much with describing the overall structure of the
executable.

I don't see any other attribute that is more appropriate.
