Thanks, I will look at that soon.

> The use case of this patch is to generate optional dwarf attributes DW_AT_digit_count/DW_AT_decimal_scale/DW_AT_binary_scale/DW_AT_decimal_sign/DW_AT_picture_string for languages like cobol, PL1, basic data types with encoding such as DW_ATE_edited DW_ATE_numeric_string  etc.

That's more a statement of the functionality of the patch than the use-case.  You have a COBOL or PL/1 or BASIC compiler using LLVM?
