I missed this the first time around. I know that is already existed, but the wording is a bit unclear to me. Is the split dwarf debug info file actually encoded e.g. converted to base64 or something, into the object file? Is it "embedded" in the object file? Or is it something else? 

It could be that I have misunderstood it. We don't have to do anything about this.
