Aren't these above more instances that needed the "join"?  I believe
so, but if not, I'd like to understand why not.
The patch looks good to me otherwise.

BTW, OOC, it seems to be that "main+0x10000" were written
without spaces before to make it a single element.  Looks like
that requirement is gone now and we could write:

	{high_pc [gdb_target_symbol main] + 0x10000 DW_FORM_addr}

(not saying you should do that, just it's just an OOC.)

Thanks,
Pedro Alves
