Of course I would never call my own objections abstract :)
But it partly is. I think it is questionable if we have to rely on the
producer string to do the right thing. But specifically just dropping a
whole CU DIE tree seems the wrong thing to do (what about the ranges,
loclists, stmt_lists left behind for example).
