Diab added some extensions to DWARF1.
They have patches to GDB (I think 4.16) which read these extensions; we
integrated them into a release of our tools for ColdFire late last year.
*More* unmerged patches!?!
:-)
They would probably go in OK - at least before the sources get
reformatted - the dwarf1 reader hasn't changed much.
Do we know if Diab has done the copyright assignment paperwork for GDB?
The patches aren't big, but there are a few chunks of code that I'm not
comfortable submitting under our (WRS') copyright assignment.
I don't recall ever seeing a Diab assignment, and I think one would
have caught my attention... Do you know if there is a particular
person I should contact and lobby about this?
