(CCing gcc-patches because of the change in include/dwarf2.h)

This file is owned by GCC (see the MAINTAINERS file at the top of
binutils-gdb). To get a modification in it, you would need to provide a
patch to gcc, then we can import the change in binutils-gdb.

I am not too sure who is responsible for allocating these values, as they
are not from the DWARF standard. At the very least, there should be a
comment to say what architecture uses this non-standard value. Is there
also a gcc port you are planning to upstream, that would use this value?

I might think about a gcc port when Gdb and Binutils are robust for this
arch. But I haven't started any work on that so far.
