<pre>DW_AT_containing_type is specified only for DW_TAG_ptr_to_member_type,
but it can appear on DW_TAG_class_type. More curiously, the attribute is a
self-reference to the class type DIE.
Older Clangs (through 3.3) did this for Linux, but 3.5 and trunk only do it
for FreeBSD, not Linux. Possibly an ABI dependent thing? But the attribute
doesn't belong there, regardless. (Curiously, my 3.4 doesn't produce it for
either Linux or FreeBSD.)
