DW_AT_upper_bound vs. DW_AT_count is described in DWARF-4:
	The DW_AT_upper_bound attribute may be replaced by a DW_AT_count
	attribute, whose value describes the number of elements in the
	subrange rather than the value of the last element. 

But your sample DWARF is a case of dynamic bounds which are supported only in
experimental branch(es) so far:

	particularly the branch jankratochvil/vla of git://sourceware.org/git/archer.git
