[PATCH] handle DW_AT_type on an enumeration

- Subject: [PATCH] handle DW_AT_type on an enumeration
- Authentication-results: sourceware.org; auth=none
DWARF allows an enumeration type to have a DW_AT_type. GDB doesn't
recognize this, but there is a patch to change GCC to emit it, and a
DWARF proposal to further allow an enum type with a DW_AT_type to omit
the DW_AT_byte_size. This patch changes gdb to implement this.
Built and regtested on x86-64 Fedora 20.

* dwarf2read.c (read_enumeration_type): Handle DW_AT_type.
2014-03-27 Tom Tromey <tromey@redhat.com>
* gdb.dwarf2/enum-type.exp: New file.
