It's a little more involved than that, and I can't really claim that
I understand all the issues, but basically, we have a bunch of changes
that improve the quality of the debugging information.  But they depend
on the descriptive-type stuff. For us to be able to improve things in
the short term, we need that one patch to go in first... I do understand
that the patch is not getting a lot of enthusiasm, but failing that,
we're going to have to wait for AdaCore's long-term interest in moving
to standard DWARF.
