FYI, I have some local hacks for the dwarf2 reader that are needed to
use inside_entry_func reliably (or a number of other things...) in the
presence of discarded sections.  I'll try to remember to post them but
the gist is that until the linker does better, we need to detect
wildly-inaccurate bounds on DIEs and not adjust the compilation unit's
bounds (or the start function's, either).
