[llvm-dev] [DebugInfo][DIBuilder] Good way to pass arguments to createClassType/createMemberType

[David Blaikie via llvm-dev]

A good rough rule of thumb here is "what would/does Clang do?" & it looks
(to me, on a very cursory glance) like Clang mostly passes the unit's
DIFile as the scope parameter for a member - so perhaps it's just ignored?
not sure.
