I have seen DWARF where the DW_AT_ranges is incorrect and I have seen cases where the low pc is just set to zero and the high pc is set to the max address. So you might have many overlapping ranges between different CUs in the latter case. We might need to be more vigilant with high/low pc values though and that was the reason that we previously ignored high/low pc values. If the stuff is missing, it should index the DWARF and generate the address ranges table manually right? What was the reasoning behind this change?
