gdb can't handle a DIE with both sibling and children

It is entirely possible for a DIE with both sibling and children. But
scan_partial_symbols () has
/* If the die has a sibling, skip to the sibling. Do not skip
enumeration types, we want to record their enumerators. Do
not skip namespaces, we want to record symbols inside
them. */
if (pdi.sibling
&& pdi.tag != DW_TAG_enumeration_type
&& pdi.tag != DW_TAG_namespace)
{
info_ptr = pdi.sibling;
}
else if (pdi.has_children)
{
/* Die has children, but either the optional DW_AT_sibling
attribute is missing or we want to look at them. */
nesting_level++;
}
That is we can't handle a DIE with both sibling and children. How
should we fix that?
