Hm. Which site "hasn't been"?

Yes, SGI's libdwarf is LGPL, but 
I agree it is unlikely FSF could get the copyright.

ftp://ftp.sgi.com/sgi/dwarf/, which was the only one I could find when
I was looking.

I was afraid that's what you meant. That is seriously obsolete.
I should ask someone to remove that source.

ftp://ftp.sgi.com/sgi/dev/davea

has various recent versions (A recent substantial submission
to the library is going to have to be removed before I
make a new version available: assignment problem). 

Only the most recent there is of any interest:
   libdwarf2001Aug29.tar.gz
