I thought about this, and it's the only patch from your patchset that I don't feel really confident about.
I'm afraid it's a little risky to add more code to the objectfile reader without having proper unittesting.
In particular, we might want to either check in an object file (not so ideal)  or use `llvm-mc` to produce a file with the correct section.
More generally, when we want to test debug info either we want to piggyback on mc or yaml2obj.
If none of them suffices, we should think about having a tool that takes a textual representation of some sort (YAML seems a good start) and produces a core dump to be passed to LLDB.
@sas what do you think?
cc:ing @vsk / @aprantl for thoughts.
