While trying to read the DWARF2 info in a partially linked object file I
encountered a bug in the compilation unit headers: The abbrev_offset member is
always zero.
This causes the .debug_info parser to interpret the attributes incorrectly and I
encounter symptoms, e.g. "Could not find abbrev number 9690".
Somehow the linker does not adjust the abbrev_offset in the compilation unit
header when it concatenates the .debug_abbrev sections of object files.
Unfortunatly I don't have the knowledge to point to where this should happen.
