Yes, I don't have a real testcase for it yet though. Using data4 for real values
seems uncommon. The dwarf spec even warns about it:

  If one of the DW_FORM_data<n> forms is used to represent a signed or unsigned
integer, it can be hard for a consumer to discover the context necessary to
determine which interpretation is intended. Producers are therefore strongly
encouraged to use DW_FORM_sdata or DW_FORM_udata for signed and unsigned
integers respectively, rather than DW_FORM_data<n>.
