David Blaikie has brought this up with me (or in conversations that
I observed) a couple of times:
It's common to want to refer to a particular address plus an offset,
for example for DW_AT_low_pc or DW_AT_ranges to describe a lexical
block or inlined subprogram within another subprogram. General

Thanks for bringing this up! Not sure if I've raised this on
dwarf-discuss specifically before.. ah, yeah, 3 years ago:
One simple approach would be to be able to represent a DW_AT_low_pc with a
DW_FORM_data encoding just like the DW_AT_high_pc does when it is an offset
from the DW_AT_low_pc. The value of the DW_AT_low_pc would be an offset from
either:
1 - the parent DIE's DW_AT_low_pc (which itself might need t

I'm not sure this would catch all the desir
