At least in Fedora the separate .debug files are also processed by dwz and
then the CRC is updated by:
	/usr/lib/rpm/sepdebugcrcfix

I was expecting the CRC update is needed for dwz and so gdb-add-index does not
contain this functionality.  But you are right it should.

Besides that GDB prefers much faster verification of a .debug file match by
its build-id also being used on Fedora (ld --build-id).  Then sure CRC is not
being checked (as that is slow to check).
