I might be a little lost in the odr code. It seems there is only one
call to die_odr_state that passes a non-NULL cu (the call in
checksum_die).

What does passing a NULL cu signify in this code?  If cu is NULL it
seems the code that calls set_die_odr_state at the end of
die_ord_state is unsafe (because it might check cu).

Just wondering if when passing NULL in as cu the result isn't simply
always die->die_odr_state? (And if so, do we even need the function
call?)

Cheers,

Mark
