My current patch to start using .debug_rnglists.dwo in GCC for -gdwarf-5
-gstrict-dwarf
will emit DW_AT_ranges in the .debug_info.dwo only (both in the CU and other
DIEs there), but if I need a DW_AT_low_pc for the base address too, do you think
it is ok to keep it in the DW_TAG_skeleton_unit with DW_FORM_addr?
If I had to move it to .debug_info.dwo DW_TAG_compile_unit, it would need to
be DW_FORM_addrx there and in the end would require larger size.
