Yes, this would require a test that checks in what the compiler generates (as opposed to the majority of our "API tests" that build test cases from source). This can either be an assembly file (something like `dwarf5-implicit-const.s`) or a YAML file created with `obj2yaml` (something like `section-overlap.yaml`).
