I just realized that dwarf2read.c will produce LOC_COMPUTED symbols, but not LOC_COMPUTED_ARG symbols. The case for DW_TAG_formal_parameter in new_symbol doesn't call var_decode_location; it does what it's always done.

Correct.

Is there any reason for this, or was it just an oversight?

The reason was that it was something that would be done *after* the initial patch was in (in order to keep the initial patch smaller).
You know, like, say, now.
