It's the former DIE (0x2a5a) which is in scope. It has the name
"incoming" through the abstract origin chain. So this is probably a
GDB issue.
Up until recently that DW_AT_location in the concrete DIE was missing,
I believe. You might want to try this (incredibly lame, untested) GDB
patch. Let me know if it does something useful.
