----------------
I get a warning here (at least with gcc) about `comp_unit` variable being unused. Did you perhaps mean to do `lang = comp_unit->GetLanguage()` on the line below?

I would have fixed this myself, but when I started looking at this, I became unsure of that is this code exactly supposed to do. Is the check for the CompileUnit really supposed to be nested inside the check the existence of a function. I would have kind of expected it to be located outside the function if statement (`if (func) stuff(func); else if (cu) stuff(cu);`

I also find the `if( lang = ... && lang != Unknown)` pattern very confusing. As it stands now, it checks for the zero value twice (once due to the `(lang = ...)` part and once because eLanguageTypeUnknown is zero), but that part is very unobvious...
