I had looked at this a bit in the past.  I don't think it's that
difficult to add DWARF2 support to GCC on hppa.  Although we don't
support named sections, we can create named subspaces for the dwarf
info.  More of an issue in my mind is the changes needed to gdb to
recognize this support.
Given that we can create a subspace for the dwarf bits just like we've got subspaces for stabs bits, it ought to be trivial.

The GDB side shouldn't be hard either, just a matter of telling it what subspaces to look for.
