This is a huge step forward as the previous debugging format was a varation of stabs. But (and there is always a but) this is not fully standard dwarf2 as the section names differ. The first two patches deal with that in the most elegant way I could figure. The last two patches simply add the dwarf2 support for xcoff. Manually tested on AIX. No regressions on gnu/linux x86-64. Ok for trunk ? Tristan.
