I thought about this, and it's the only patch from your patchset that I don't feel really confident about.<br>
I'm afraid it's a little risky to add more code to the objectfile reader without having proper unittesting.<br>
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.<br>
More generally, when we want to test debug info either we want to piggyback on mc or yaml2obj.<br>
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.<br>
@sas what do you think?<br>
cc:ing @vsk / @aprantl for thoughts.<br>
